This was a cause for some annoyance when I wrote that bit, as I work on an SGI
and SGI are one of the platforms without FUNCTION_MACRO support.  So, on
systems that support FUNCTION_MACRO the function name will appear in the debug
message header.  For those that don't we *sometimes* include the function name
in the debug message itself.  The problem is that functions get renamed and
code gets copied about.  As a result, we can't completely trust the function
names that are hand-written into the messages.

It's a trade-off.  The kind of thing that one encounters when trying to be as
portable as possible (a point which Andrew has had great fun driving home to
me).
