OK.

I am also open to dropping the function and its use. When developing the
ringbuffer I also had a similar function but never attempted to publish
it. It is useful for developing/testing/debugging, but once everything
works as it should it has no real purpose. I have no problems keeping
the debug stuff hidden in my own private toolbox.
