One of the problems with Ms/Dos debuggers is they run in the same space as the
program.  If the program is too big, you can't debug it.

Also, have you ever seen a program which runs under the debugger but doesn't
run standalone?  This is commonplace on Mus-Dos.

On Unix (maybe Minix) debuggers run in a separate address space.  I don't see
the same sorta problems.
