Can we install debug versions of VisIt in /usr/gapps at LLNL

Is your feature request related to a problem?

When we are encountering hard to diagnose issues with VisIt (like current issues with rzhound displaying back to macOS via X), it would be nice to be able to set breakpoints and look at stack dumps as well as get core dumps. We can't do that with production installs of VisIt though.

So, would be be too much to ask to have debug installs (available only to VisIt developers) there as well perhaps in something like /usr/gapps/visit/<ver>/debug? We might not often use it but when it is available, I think it would be truly helpful.
