Let me mention a technicality.  If the program has been linked /NOTRACEBACK
(which seems to happen a fair amount -- reasons of image size and execution
time, perhaps?) then RUN/DEBUG never gets you to the debugger prompt.  I,
too, would be interested in any p-d software that could disassemble an
executable lacking traceback information.
