On a related topic;

I am running into a hard-to-reproduce hang problem that will completely
halt both the Palm device and the POSE emulator when it occurs. This is
extremely irksome to track down since I do not know why or where in the
code it happens and it can take a minute to run with random gremlins to
trigger.

In the PC environment I would simply break into the debugger once the hang
happens and see the call context and disassembly with source; what can I
do to introduce a manual breakpoint in this manner at run time for Palm 
or POSE?
