  The "proper" way to return to the Finder from the internal debugger is to
type sm 0 a9f4 <return>
     g 0 <return>
  If you're using MacsBug, you can ES to return to the Finder, or RB to
reboot the machine.

  The problem is that when the system bombs, a lot of the memory may have
been corrupted, so your best bet is probably to reboot anyway...
