I think ParseArguments (in libjli/java.c) could be changed so that it doesn't 
translate -debug to -Xdebug, instead it can print a warning, like it does for 
-Xfuture. The reason is -debug is a java launcher option, it's not known to the 
VM and means that Arguments::parse_each_vm_init_arg doesn't need to mention 
-debug when it warns about -Xdebug.
