In this configuration, the debugger is executed in the correct thread,
and the frame-pointer should point to the correct stack.  But be
warned, CMUCL's multithreading is non-preemptive, and interrupting
will not work if a thread is busy executing an endless loop.

That's true.  Not sure if it should, because that would override any
setting in the .swank.lisp file.  What do you think?
