The problem is that pausing execution in module code is dangerous, as if
you hold any locks or anything like that, you can hang other threads or
even the whole machine.

You probablhy want to be looking at the kgdb support, that is coded to
work around a lot of the issues and you get full GDB support not just a
getchar() pause.
