The way that java does it is to use integer constants.  This makes it
easier to compare and for example
turn on all debug statements above level N or below level M.  If you set
the integers to be constants,
then you don't lose anything regarding readability.

The odd thing is that I would have imagined that there is a standard
tracing module in C++ but
there doesn't seem to be one.
