It's already there -- search for "dotest_internal_debug".  We don't use
it by default because it's much slower and it doesn't handle wildcards
that are supposed to match multiple lines.

The files you attached are highly suspect.  They're absolutely
identical, which they shouldn't be; one should contain regular
expression patterns where the other contains literal text.  In fact,
both contain some things that look vaguely like regular expressions, but
have literal text in other places where there should be patterns.
