Well, it was when I was working on Lazarus's cocoa-widgetset that I 
decided to make my own debugger.

You can try that one. Only thing is that you have to sign your IDE. (Or 
fpd - the console version of the debugger), you have to use the Dwarf 
debug-format, and you have to run 'dsymutil' to create a .dSym-debug 
bundle for your application.

If you want I can help you with that.
