+	* boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
+ 	recording of source code positions.  This was placed there for our
+ 	convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
+ 	once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
+ 	we need it.  (These options are normally enabled at the end of
+	boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
