I have a program and small library that I recently worked the bugs out
of to my best understanding.
I included a lot of debug output using #if defined(_DEBUG).
that debug ouput is flushed at every instance.
the library output shows with -g compiler switch, but not without.
the main program's debug output always shows.

can someone explain this?  I have the #define on in both the library
file and the main source and the header file.
I think I am running into a compiler bug.

and this doesn't happen with mingw-w64 (a gnu compiler for windows).
