Huh?  Do I misunderstand what you are writing?

You are testing a variable that is not generally set
so the call is not being performed in the general case,
but the compiler can not elide the code.

If the variable was enabled via the control file, the
__dynamic_pr_debug would be performed with the
use-after-free.
