There's nothing wrong with OpenMCL.  It's just that we need a way to
invoke our debugger on a break.  In CMUCL we can use *DEBUGGER-HOOK*
for this, because CMUCL isn't quite ANSI conform in this regard.  We
need a different solution for OpenMCL.  The patch was written for
OpenMCL 0.12 (the version I have access to), but doesn't seem to work
for newer versions.  You could look at the source of BREAK and change
it.  All you have to add is a call to *DEBUGGER-HOOK* or a call
swank::swank-debugger-hook directly.

Helmut.
