Actually, -D was a debian-specific switch, that had the same meaning as
the current -F: do fork into background, even in the presence of of -d
and/or -v .

Though it is actually better to use asterisk.conf for adding extra
debugging parameters, as it is being aplied on every restart of Asterisk
and not just by a full restart of the Asterisk service (for those of you
who have learned to use asterisk -R).
