I disagree.  The code was only left there to save me from typing it
again should I, or someone else, want to do further development.  It's
no different than any other ifdef'd out debug code.  If it was even
remotely intended for a user to ever see it, it wouldn't have been
commented out.

I won't mind if you want another construct, but I really can't see a
problem with using cout/cerr for code that isn't intended for
production use.
