Compiler flags (for 32bit) are, (from unaltered /etc/makepkg.conf):
CXXFLAGS="-march=i686 -mtune=generic -O2 -pipe -fstack-protector
--param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2"

above, your line number didn't match exactly, so we seem to have
different versions (1.9.7 here). Thus, I wasn't exactly sure where to
add the prinf() and did the following:
...
JackServerGlobals::fUserCount = 1; // One user
printf("DEBUG verbose2: %s\n",(JackGlobals::fVerbose)?"on":"off");
JackGlobals::fVerbose = verbose;
printf("DEBUG verbose3: %s\n",(JackGlobals::fVerbose)?"on":"off");
}
which prints:
DEBUG verbose2: off
DEBUG verbose3: on

Again, mismatching line numbers. I assume you meant the line:
union jackctl_parameter_value verbose;
Changing that to struct fixes both issues I reported,
the verbose output and exit on last client close.
So we seem to be getting somewhere. Nice.
thanks Robin,
