Keeps it from blowing up if those vars don't exist. Since it's now 
possible to generate a log in 9 in the runtime environment as well as 
the dev environment, I can pop in to the backdoor on my exe, declare the 
appropriate var and get a log file that I can then pull down on to my 
system for analysis. Those 2 sys vars are only need to be in scope when 
I need them. I could declare them as part of my app but then I'd have to 
make sure I left them in the appropriate state.

I suppose it is a bit of a hammer approach but I've found it pretty 
useful myself. Not only do you get to see what code is or isn't 
executed, but you get the performance info, too.
