YetAnotherPWM.c with the Pic32MX250F128B

During one of my tests, i was scratching my head for ages about why the PWM signal wasnt coming out on one of the remappable pins PPS. Went through examples, family datasheet, etc...
 Only to come to the conclusion that it would never work without disabling the JTAG ports in the configuration bits.
