Please guys, calm down. The topic is not worth it. 
I will redirect Nanas messages (optionally, of course, you will see).
David will add file and line no. to kdebugs output. This is a lot of
debugging functionality for KDE, that is the main point. 
And NDEBUG will erase all :-)

Well, this is wrong, Nana does not depend on -g. It depends on
-WITHOUT_NANA. Everything created is real code, except gdb interaction,
of course. You might add a default GUARD (boolean value) to your app
that is switchable from the menu to enable or disable logging. Do not
confuse this. It is a POSSIBILITY to remove the statements through the
preprocessor.
