It looks like nobody is objecting to this. I understand that not
everyone who might object will have read this email thread, so what I
propose to do here is move along and just commit the patch to swap out
debug_print_rel and use pprint instead. If that's done now then there
are around 10 months where we could realistically revert this again if
someone were to come forward with an objection.

Sound ok?
