I have no comment on the extdebug part, but while perusing the man page
to find this section, I came across:

      Note that shell functions and variables with the same name may result
      in multiple identically-named entries in the environment passed to the
      shell's children.  Care should be taken in cases where this may cause
      a problem.

I believe this section is no longer correct, as exported functions now
use BASH_FUNC_funcname%% in the environment.
