But it is not as "structured" as a C structure named "debug" which would contain not only boolean but where to send the ouput (stdout, stderr, serial, filename...) and sub-structures like what to debug in "INPUT".
Anyway GCC-4.6 does introduce the inlining of constants, if you want a read only variable modified in the ELF file or at assembly time before main() is called, you now need to use "volatile const" - I was too quick to do that initial comment...
