I'm not entirely convinced about it's use now myself. When the TCP/IP stack
was new it was informative, but now we could make it optional.

For you, work around it by editting net/tcpip/current/src/ecos/support.c,
in the function cyg_kmem_init().

Gary, any reason not to make a config option that controls debug output. It
could be a component that included other things like DHCP_CHATTER.
