Looks like it works as well as the pretest I have been using for
years.  (They both sometimes -- rarely -- fail to step into some
functions, but could be "persuaded" by using "stepi" and/or setting a
breakpoint at the offending function.)

So I think this should be moved to current/v2gnu/, and perhaps rebuilt
with v2.05 if it isn't already.

Thanks a lot for your help.
