(require 'sawfish.wm.commands.launcher) does. 

As a practical solution, use 'ack' to search inside the source tree,
or use 'git', if you know git. We've been improving the doc, but this
kind of info is often lacking. I'll fix the doc on this point.

First, separate the sawfish output, i.e. run sawfish as
sawfish &> sawfish-log/somewhere.txt

I often use (format standard-error "Foo value: %s\n" foo)

The display-message function worked for me from the rc file.
