Attached patch wip (obsolete) — Splinter Review
I hacked this up to get frame dumps in Opt builds (for bug 946929).
It puts nsIFrame::List() and related methods under a separate #ifdef
than DEBUG.  It's off by default, except in DEBUG builds:

#ifdef DEBUG
#define DEBUG_Frame_Dump 1
#endif

The idea is that if you want frame dumps in Opt builds, you simply change
that to be unconditional, or define it in a mozconfig or whatever,
and then rebuild.

Let me know if you would find this useful and I'll land it...
Landing it seems fine with me, though it might bitrot a bit once landed.  The macro name should probably be all-uppercase, though, and it wouldn't be a bad idea if:

>+#ifdef DEBUG
>+#define DEBUG_Frame_Dump 1
>+#endif

had a comment explaining why it's separate from DEBUG (i.e., so that it can be defined in non-DEBUG builds).
