This is a RFC patch. The work to possibly merge kdb and kgdb is being
evaluated and this patch is considered only a proof of concept or
prototype.
Add in a low level hook to catch calls to die() in the debugger.
After the debugger is done, the standard system rules will be in play
for the original exception.
The kdb debugger wanted a chance to catch these sorts of exceptions
for analysis.
