I'm using ddb as much as I can, but it has some major drawbacks, most of
all, that you can't debug C structures. Also, single stepping doesn't work.
(Yes, I know that single stepping machine instructions on the sparc 
isn't easy to implement.)

Oh well, eventually I'll get what I want anyway. It'll just take a little
longer.

Bye, Rolf
