I don't know what the changes will involve as I've never done this (in fact I think everyone has been avoiding this one :-( ). Can you at find out what the changes look like - how many files need to be touched e.t.c.? If the operation is relatively small/mechanical then it should be possible for someone with an assignment to reproduce it. Getting the watchpoint stuff into the target vector is long overdue. When it comes to (C) I tend to be very conservative :-/ Andrew
