So much for going old school. It does work, but it's next to useless
for the stuff I'm doing. I really miss having a list of all the
variables in the stack frame with their values, and seeing the code as
I step through it.

I tried again to follow the instructions from
http://www.winehq.org/docs/winedev-guide/dbg-others but I could not
get ddd nor kdbg to work. ddd comes up with "A syntax error in
expression, near `0x681f2fbd'." and an empty source view. kdbg comes
up and it does not find the sources either. The following error
message is displayed "Unknown or malformed query Attached" when the
test is run. After a few exceptions the test runs to the end.

Does anyone use a graphical debugger?
