    Description

      It would be better to also have the debug check in the debug() method(s)
      just in case call sites are missed. Because the boolean class member is
      a `static final` the JIT should optimize the superfluous branch away.

      Also, while we're at it, printing debug messages to `stdout` is a
      terrible thing to do. The only reason I'm even writing this is that
      those messages go to `stdout`. The chance of accidental writing to
      `stdout` (which can cause problems for apps) should be zero.

      This bug is reported at https://mail.openjdk.org/pipermail/security-dev/2023-April/035026.html.
