BUG: Debug channels get initialized too late

[Dmitry Timoshkov]

Hello Alexandre,

currently debug channels are initialized too late. Due to that
debugging with +nls turned on doesn't show traces produced by
dlls/kernel/locale.c,LOCALE_Init().

That's because we need the locale stuff before parsing the command
line, and the debug options are on the command line. The solution is
to get rid of the --debugmsg option and use a WINEDEBUG environment
variable instead.

I thought you might say that. I sense a "corkscrew" script coming up :)

Do you mean WINEOPTIONS? If yes, what is correct syntax for it?

WINEOPTIONS="--debugmsg +nls" wine notepad &>notepad.log

?

Actually using WINEOPTIONS has exactly the same problem:
traces produced by dlls/kernel/locale.c,LOCALE_Init() DO NOT
appear in the log.

No, I don't mean WINEOPTIONS, that's a hack that will need to go away
too. I mean a new WINEDEBUG variable just for debugging setup, similar
to the LD_DEBUG of the ELF loader. It won't work right now because
it's not implemented yet...
