Hi,

I built MonoDevelop & debugger with the latest sources as of last week and 
it's working but has a few problems. In an effort to try and learn the 
MonoDevelop source more quickly and possibly troubleshoot some of the 
problems I've been having, I decided to try debugging MonoDevelop itself, 
using the "Debug Application" menu option, which produced this stack trace

Exception occurred:

System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an 
object
in <0x000e4> Mono.Debugger.Backends.SingleSteppingEngine:setup_engine ()
in <0x0005e> Mono.Debugger.Backends.SingleSteppingEngine:.ctor 
(Mono.Debugger.ThreadManager manager, Mono.Debugger.ProcessStart start)
in <0x0002f> Mono.Debugger.ThreadManager:start_inferior ()

I noticed that there are no line numbers. Is this because it wasn't built 
with debug info?  If so, how do I tell autogen to put the necessary flags in 
the Makefile do this for MonoDevelop & debugger?  I've searched the make 
related files but don't see an obvious way.

Thanks,
Scott
