Well, if the flag is BGWORKER_QUIET, then the default behavior remains
unchanged, but when that flag is used, the log level is reduced to
DEBUG1. That has the advantage of not breaking backward
compatibility. But I'm not sure whether anyone cares if we just break
it, and it's certainly simpler without the flag.
