I left ubuf's size set at 4k, which SHOULD be enough (unless somebody starts usings lists of
lists of lists.... or somesuch).

As to those wierd exceptions, the interrupt number in the childs 'tss' was getting corrupted
(or not set) and fsdb didn't range check the values.  I put in code to that effect and now
the debugger works beutifully.

When I get diff figured out, I'll send the patches.
