At least System5.2 and beyond do watchpoints.
From the manual:

	  variable$m count
	  address:m count
	       Single step (as with s) until the specified location is
	       modified	with a new value.  If count is omitted,	it is
	       effectively infinity.  Variable must be accessible from
	       the current procedure.  Since this command is done by
	       software, it can	be very	slow.
