using the CH_USE_DEBUG in chconf.h.
The trace buffer is meant to be fetched and decoded by an external tool

- Implemented panic messages when CH_USE_DEBUG is enabled.
- Added a thread identifier field to the Thread structure, it is used only
for debug.

+- API chSysGetTime() reimplemented as a macro.

the configuration parameters in ./ARM7-LPC214x/GCC/lpc214x_serial.h.
