Take a look at C4::Debug. This module is a start at exactly that. As
we work through the code currently, we make every attempt to
conditionalize debug warns based on C4::Debug. One goal as we head
toward 3.2 is (I believe) to gain complete control over all debug
warns and remove all useless warns.

Kind Regards,
