We don't use xdbx, rather we are using Saber-C and Sun's 
dbxtool (from OpenWindows) and don't have any trouble with
debugging.  Also, you'll be able to debug XView clients better
if you use the -fullscreendebug command-line arguement.  This
arg will avoid server lockups if you happen to put a break
point in the wrong place :-)
