I think --enable-debug should be enough.

The easiest way to try git and avoid messing with your current system is 
to build using ./bootstrap-configure && make and run bluetoothd directly 
from the source tree. bootstrap-configure uses the 
--enable-maintainer-mode configure switch which makes bluetoothd load the 
plugins right out of the source tree, so you don't need to worry about 
version conflicts with your existing system.

If possible, yes please. It eliminates the question "has this been fixed 
since the last release?" and makes it easier for the developers to match 
the line numbers in the backtrace (assuming you have debug symbols) to 
their development trees which are mostly based on latest git.
