Yes, if you add a line below,
console_loglevel = 8;  // 8 is debug level
The debug messages will also be printed to your console (serial port).
(Maybe this also goes to /var/log/debug ?)
you could revert it back after use.

You probably need a #define DEBUG. Also, check your console logging
level, make sure it's set to output debug-level to the console.

/proc/sys/kernel/printk and 'dmesg --console-level' are your friends.
