Well, since they would probably be dependent on a special define, they don't
even have to be controlled by command line options but instead do things by
default or be controlled by environment variables. It doesn't really matter
how it is controlled. My point is the functionality and that it is only there
when SVN_RESOURCE_DEBUG is defined. Of course, we should decide once and for
all how things like this is best added (if at all).

I've personally written this kind of stuff for an different open source
library I tend to hack on, and it has helped me a lot.
