James,

Point taken.

Let's say that an interactive debugger is extremely useful, then.

So, you still haven't cut the size of that application down then, eh :-)?

Are there no remote debuggers available on UNIX? That is, where the
debugger runs on a machine separate from the debuggee, with a small
debugger stub in the debuggee.

Borland have had such a scheme on PCs for a while.
