The meaning of "decl" and "rep" is not documented.
I think the intent is to leave declarative debugging undocumented for now?
If so, you should comment out the line with "decl, rep" and uncomment the
other one.  Also you should add a comment explaining why the declarative
debugging stuff is not documented.

Apart from that, this change looks fine.
