Source level debugging with PalmDebugger is impossible with CodeWarrior.
As the documentation states, PalmDebugger's source level debugging works
with the symbolic information in executables compiled with prc-tools.
Sadly most versions of PalmDebugger have historically had various bugs
that make source level debugging more or less impossible.
Handspring's version of PalmDebugger is likely to be the least broken.

However with luck you can extract Handspring's PalmDebugger separately
from their version of prc-tools and continue to use your modern Cygwin
and prc-tools.
