Well, first off I could do it in a way that DPRINT(foo) wouldn't 
compile, so it would remind them automatically

The only other solutions I've come up with are less pretty:

1)  DPRINT0(foo) DPRINT1(foo,a) DPRINT2(foo,a,b) etc...
      a serious problem with this is that DPRINT1 already means 
something different than DPRINT...

2) #define _C_ ,
     DPRINT(foo _C_ a _C_ b)
      this is ugly and probably couldn't be protected from uncaring 
mingwers.
