I disagree. The debug feature is a standard Pine behaviour. I was very surprised disappointed when I discovered that I couldn't use the debug option at all (I was having some problem with Pine and the SMTP server (exim), and I would like to check the .pine-debug? files to see what was going on.) Therefore, I think the -DDEBUG flag should be turned on by default. If some user is annoyed with the .pine-debug? files, they can always use the -d 0 option. At least, let the user make the decision instead of eliminating the -d option entirely.
