Is the dynamic debugger information better there or
http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/Debugging a newer page I made
to help end-users, especially those who don't have experience
compiling Syslinux and/or don't have a reliable build machine for
Syslinux?

Is there a way to modify a binary (especially pxelinux.0) such that
certain key debug messages are active?  I've got my UNDI debug (just
drops up to 3 lines via dprintf() per packet sent or received) and was
wondering how to make a build that could coexist (without a rebuild)
