Hui, 

I've created a new branch in which I've hoisted my old 
reverse-debugging changes into the current codebase.  
It compiles, but I haven't had a chance to test it yet
to see if it actually works in reverse.

You might like to take a look at it, to get an idea of
the direction we were most recently headed -- maybe diff
it against the base to look at the changes.

Branch name: msnyder-reverse-20080609-branch
