I asked this a few weeks ago but didn't get a response, so at the risk of being a nag, I'll abbreviate and restate.

I know there are other Xen specific debuggers, but I want to know if there's any reason why SGI's kdb, http://oss.sgi.com/projects/kdb, should not be included in a dom0 pv-ops kernel?

While the patches apply cleanly and build, the result is that one drops into kdb on an oops the serial keyboard is non-functional. 
Is this a problem inherent in including an incompatible debugger, or perhaps just something wrong in a .config?

Does anyone else use this debugger for dom0 work ?

Thanks

-Bruce
