I see an important difference between debugging tasking problems and
debugging multi-tasking applications.  I agree with your point that you
need analysis to debug tasking problems.  However, I have a lot of
experience working with applications containing many dozens of tasks,
and I wish our debugger would handle a statement like "SET a breakpoint
when task x calls routine y."  This, I think, is a shortcoming of all
of our APSEs.  We mostly use DEC's VAX and Alpha compilers/debuggers,
and while not bad, could be much better (the Alpha one in particular is
a bit of a pain).
