[vlc-devel] [PATCH] configure: enable debug by default

[Thomas Guillem]

It seems that lot of developers forget to enable this option. This option
enables assert and other debug codes (like the very useful thread/mutex debug
code) that should be mandatory when you dev on VLC.

This is quite a big change: all VLC maintainers should now add
"--disable-debug" when they release a stable version of VLC.
