Sorry, above is not totally correct: you actually do not need to set the 
DEBUG variable, just setting the verbose flag is enough:

v.net in=streets_wake points=schools_wake out=streets_with_schools
operation=connect thresh=50
v.net.salesman in=streets_with_schools out=salesroute ccats=1-999 --v

But still, this should probably be upgraded from a hidden feature to a 
real option.
