# Python can be built with extensive debugging support. This file lets
# Sage know about which debugging options are enabled.
#
# To enable debugging, build Sage with the SAGE_DEBUG environment
# variable set to "yes":
#
# [user@localhost:~/sage-x.y.z] export SAGE_DEBUG=yes && make

    # _Py_RefTotal hold a count of all references, the sum of
    # ob_refcnt across all objects.  Also checks after every decref to
    # verify that the refcount hasn't gone negative, and causes an
    # immediate fatal error if it has.
