I am trying to build a Sun 3 Xinu kernel (v 7.0) with GCC.  I have gotten
to the point (kernel compiled, linked, loaded, dieing on a trap) that 
some form of symbolic debugger would be REAL useful.  I'd realy rather not
try to do stack traces by hand using the PROM monitor commands.   Is there
any way to load in adb or some other debugger ?
