Add a whimpy ui op to the debug API that returns TRUE if debugging is turned on in the UI. This allows the core to avoid having a call to g_strdup_vprintf() for each debug message when debugging is turned off. The change should provide a very very small speed improvement, since we tend to print a lot of debug output.
