I was just wondering how people debugged programs that spawn off tasks.  Manx
SDB doesn't seem up to the task (sorry.)  Does Lattice's new CodeProbe
deal with it?  I have had to go through some interesting contortions to figure
out what was going in some of my subtasks, since I can't SDB and I can't printf.

Anyone have any clever tricks (or tools) for this?
