I don't want to install condition-case-no-debug,
because the other feature I desiged makes it unnecessary.
Would you please remove condition-case-no-debug
and implement the new feature in eval.c?

    What new feature are you talking about?

The feature of putting `debug' into the list of conditions
meaning "don't catch these when debugging".

As explained I find it to be a bad design: it changes the meaning of
a pre-existing syntax, and it requires changes both in C and in the
byte-compiler.  For such a very minor feature, I believe a macro is a much
better fit.
