You don't see any output from the Tag Debug block because it only shows the
tags, not the data.  You actually don't have any tags in your data.  You
just have a PMT object with a NIL CAR and a populated CDR.  Since there are
no elements in the CAR, you get no tags.  I personally got confused because
I thought that if I passed in a valid CAR/CDR combo to the pmt generator
then it would just overwrite the CDR portion.  Not so, it actually ignores
whatever data comes in.  Check out
http://gnuradio.org/doc/doxygen/page_pmt.html for more info about PMT
objects.
