_PKG_DEBUG is already bound to another meaning, so we should find 
another way.

I definitely don't want to start every shell command with:

         ${_PKG_SILENT}${_PKG_DEBUG}${_PKG_FAILEARLY}

The worst thing of this is that this very useful combination consists 
entirely of internal variables. I had tried to start a discussion on 
this topic in [1], but no one had answered me. Maybe now it's time to 
try again.
