My complete history of tries & fails wrt. doing the debug output easier
is here:

http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=65920

At some stage I introduced std::cout << "foo " << aString << std::endl;
in ooo-build, but it was breaking the unit tests in tools:

commit 77951e773a286800967046730ff6e536eb7196aa

    Kill, breaks tools unit tests (and is not much helpful anyway).
    
    * patches/src680/sal-oustring-debug.diff,
    patches/src680/apply: Kill, breaks tools unit tests (and is not much
    helpful anyway).

Could anybody here re-try & see what exactly was going on there?
