lib/list_debug.c: print unmangled addresses
The entire point of printing the pointers in list_debug is to see if there's any useful information in them (eg poison values, ASCII, etc); obscuring them to see if they compare equal makes them much less useful. If an attacker can force this message to be printed, we've already lost.
