It was my assumption to simply remove this entire section to disable
debugging:

=====================
# Debugging for use in -current
options         KDB                     # Enable kernel debugger support.
options         DDB                     # Support DDB.
options         GDB                     # Support remote GDB.
options         INVARIANTS              # Enable calls of extra sanity
checking
options         INVARIANT_SUPPORT       # Extra sanity checks of internal
structures, required by INVARIANTS
options         WITNESS                 # Enable checks to detect deadlocks
and cycles
options         WITNESS_SKIPSPIN        # Don't run witness on spinlocks for
speed
=====================

Correct?
