Debug functions removed in 5.822?

Just noticed that all debug functions have been removed from LWP in
5.822.

They were quite useful, because they allowed to take a peek at the inner
workings of a HTTP request cycle and let users make educated guesses on
which parts the code spent the most time in.

Looks like they have been replaced by ... nothing?

Ok, there's, show_progress(), but it looks less useful because it
doesn't provide low-level details.

Oh, and it only works with perl-5.10, not with perl-5.8, because

     STDERR->flush()

is used in the last line.

Any chance we could get the good-old debugging/tracing functionality
back? Please?
