Well, easy to claim, I know, but I don't think this is a hard reason.
However, as overcoming genmon and genoffset may require quite some
refactoring, I'm not sure if it's worth it.
For debugging purposes I meanwhile created my own build system anyway.
gdb fortunately accepts an monitor-image.out built with -g so that
source level debugging of the monitor is possible as well.
/me now needs to understand how this thing works...
