I don't use the debugging features.  If no one tells me of a problem
I don't notice it.

Actually the globals may not be as misleading as you might think.
The names are simply derived from german and therefore make no sense
to english programmers.  (Or at least I hope the original author had
good names and we just don't understand them.)  As for comments, I have
nothing against them and don't needlessly strip them out.  Your
patch seems fairly reasonable.  (Actually I do dislike comments to
some degree.  Comments should be a last resort.  Ideally the code
should be well designed and intuitive enough not to need comments
but obviously that is not always possible.  Xwpe, on the other hand,
is no where near that clearity.)
