The testing capability itself does not anyhow hang on a debug build. We
need the approach only on platforms that don't support the LD_PRELOAD hack.

We can of course introduce a new #define for "regular" debug builds, but it
sounds like a bit overkill to me. Do we actually have any autobuild that runs
the NTLM tests, but does not support the LD_PRELOAD stuff?
