Several people have pointed out several ways to use the #define to 
equate DEBUG to printf. I personaly feel that using the standard
#ifdef and using the the "-D<flag>" option at compile time is the
best way to do it. Am I missing something here ? I do this with
different levels of debugging so I can have several flags. Anyway
that is my $0.2 worth.
