Separating Process and Debugger Debugmsg Output

[Uwe Bonnes]

Hallo,

if one starts a program via wine with e.g. relay debug messages enabled, and
the program crashes, these debugmessages get also enabled for the winedbg
process and this clutters the relay log to get nearly unreadable.

Until Alexandre's restructuring of the Command Line handling, I had
"---debugmsg -all" as additional argument to the winedbg command line in
system.reg, aedebug section. No wine spits on this argument.

How do you solve this problem?

with today's CVS tree, not much I fear

my preferred solution would be to add some flags to CreateProcess
to ask for not passing some Wine elements from the parent process
to the child process (like -debug channels...) and use them
in the case of launching a debugger (would for any debugger not
only winedbg)

another hackish solution, not appliable as it is :
