That is certainly a better approach than tweaking each call site of
BUG.

The interface to BUG is "write a code to determine condition and
then die by calling BUG", which means under '-x' you are bound to
see the trace from "code to determine condition" part.

I wonder if introducing a BUG_ON helper function that

 - turns off '-x' trace upon entry;
 - takes a condition as one of its arguments and evals it;
 - issues a message and dies if needed;
 - otherwise arranges to turn '-x' trace on and return.

would solve it well?

Thanks.
