   (So that when I step through my program, I don't wind up in the bowels
   of libobjc.a.)

I compiled libobjc.a without debugging information and am able to single-step
into a method call without landing in the ObjC runtime.

   Also, how can I see the contents of
   an instance variable of an arbitrary id?  i.e. if my code looks like:

     MyClass* myvar;

   I can type "p myvar->data" and get an answer.  But if my code looks like:

     id myvar;

   and I happen to know at runtime that myvar is a MyClass object, how do
   I access the instance variable?

I have never been able to look at instance variables of an object typed id, no
matter what contortions of casts I go through.  Other posters seem to suggest
that it SOMETIMES works.  If anybody has an example where it works, please
post it.
