I'm debugging an app that borrows a good deal of code from the SDK samples

offending function I notice that one of the local variables declared in the
function doesn't display in the debugger window.  All the others are there
with their values, but this one UInt16 type variable is simply absent.  What
can cause this to happen?

Are you building your application with the optimization level set above "0". Looking at the code, it is likely that the optimizer removed the "flags" variable, propagating the expression into its use in the GetBitMacro call and eliminating the storage needed for that variable.
