Is there some reason you can't use CodeWarrior 6 for this project?

What this sounds like (and I know Dave is going to rack me over for saying
this), is your application is killing the debugger, but it also could be a
memory leak in the debugger if this is after a long session.

If this is a memory leak in CodeWarrior or in the debugger All I can think
of is running to a break point and keep moving it ahead each time and
doing fresh debugger settings. 

I wish I had better advice,  I don't recall this as a bug in 5.3 debugger.
