pr uses print_output_debug_flag

  define pr
    set $output_debug = print_output_debug_flag
    set print_output_debug_flag = 0
    set debug_print ($)
    set print_output_debug_flag = $output_debug
  end
  document pr

If its been optimised away GDB, the first line will give:

  (gdb) set $output_debug = print_output_debug_flag
  No symbol "print_output_debug_flag" in current context.

For every platform except Windows configured with "CFLAGS=-g -O2" or similar.

I can't speak for others but I configure with "CFLAGS=-g3".
