The new Turbo C debugger allegedly lets you single step through
code backwards.  It sounds like it makes some kind of undo record
for every machine instruction it runs forwards.  The amount of
recording it can do is surely somewhat limited, but it still
sounds useful.  I have heard that it doesn't work across
function calls.
