I'm not sure where this hunk of change should go. I can find
the surrounding text still in the last but 3 version of the file:

It appears that there are several changes made to the debugger in blead
that aren't yet in maint. I don't know why Jarkko didn't merge them.
I'm also not sure what to do now.
I'd like this debugger patch in maint, but I don't use the debugger, so
don't have a good idea of how to test any 3 way merging I do. Hence I'll
get some of it wrong if I try. Also, it will take time, which is something
I don't have huge amounts of right now.
So unless someone not me (doesn't have to be Ilya) steps forward and
integrates these changes into blead's debugger, it's not going to get
in until 5.8.3. [Because I will have more time then and will try to do it]
