This means the build is optimized.  This might get in the way when we
will need to use GDB, but for now it's OK.

Below please find a simple patch that adds instrumentation to the
cache operations.  The trace goes to the *Messages* buffer.  Please
apply the patch, then run your recipe, and show the trace for it.  (It
is best to mark the place in *Messages* where you actually start and
end the recipe with some prominent string, because the newline cache
is consulted _a_lot_.)

Thanks.
