For the AI, this produces way too much logging info, especially for heavy
files like aiunit.c

I would rather do like Raimar has started doing, define different
loglevels for various pieces of the code, so that you can, say, turn all
bodyguard-related info into LOG_NORMAL. Personally I always edit the
loglevels of the freelogs I want to watch and almost never use verbose or
debug mode - the important info always gets lost to me in the flurry of
messages, last time I did that I had to pipe three grep to the output to
make any sense of it.
