Configure to use WITH_DEBUG

[Bill Moran]

In response to White Hat <pigskin_referee at yahoo.com>:

> I have a system that I am setting up that will only be used to test programs. I therefore want all programs built with debug code. To facilitate that task, I was wondering if I could put a global flag in the '/etc/make.conf' file. Assuming that would work, which of these is the better solution.

#2 and #3 will work.
The key is that the variable is set, not what it's set to.  As a joke,
you can do WITH_DEBUG=no in make.conf, and confuse the hell out of other
sysadmins.

Note that there may be additional port-specific debugging that would
not be turned on by the global WITH_DEBUG, but you'll have to handle
that on a port-by-port basis.
