Thanks, I've started looking into this.  My impression is that I have
a lot to learn, so this will take some time.

Probably not 1.8, no.  I'm now planning for it to be in 1.10 (or
whatever the next release is called).  On the other hand, what do
these numbers really mean?  I guess it depends what other new features
people have in mind for "1.10".

What is definitely true is that I'm working right now on integrating
guile-debugging into the core guile CVS.  (And in fact this work is
almost complete.)
