I've added a dbgflush() function to debug.c. Calling this will cause the

debug format buffer to be written out (and reset).  fflush() is also called
to force the issue.  I replaced the call to fflush() in client.c with a
call to dbgflush(), which seems to have fixed the problem that Andrew was
working on (i.e., that the prompt was not displayed when using smbclient).
