Magic does async IO, so that the background DRC can be interrupted.  This 
gives rise to the DBX problem mentioned.  You can instruct some versions
of DBX to ignore certain signals.  There is also an undocumented flag in
Magic ("-D") that causes it to behave a bit differently for debugging
purposes.  Either of these will, I think, allow Magic to run under DBX.
