This is from a recent commit that checks that PSL_EE (external exceptions)
is enabled in do_pending_int from extintr.c (gee, that sounds familiar). I
could be wrong, but I believe that PSL_EE is supposed to be off while in
the debugger. It's possible that some code needs to be added to deal with
i/o commands like sync'ing the disc.
