Consider this a +1 for some way to enable useful PKINIT debugging 
without a recompile. The number of times I've had to install a debug 
plugin .so just to figure out basic config issues...

Hell, even just adding an autoconf option to enable it so I didn't have 
to hand-edit the include file would be a win... (yeah, I could probably 
pass in a custom CPPFLAGS option, but by the time I find the !@#$% macro 
I'm already in the include file, so...)
