Take a look at the changes to src/ and test/simple/.  The time spent
on keeping the debugger's supporting infrastructure and test suite
working is in my perception disproportional to the number of people
that actually use it.  It hampers new development and it even gets in
the way of bug fixes sometimes.

That's what prompted me to start this thread, actually: spending one
hour on some bug fixes, then spending the rest of the day trying to
work around debugger issues.
