Ok, this maybe an obvious FAQ but here goes....

What unix-debuggers are available for gnat users?

I use a gnatified gdb with mxgdb as shell but have
found it not to be as efficient as i hoped it would be.
This is mainly due to lack of two functions:
1) Make a breakpoint stop all tasks. 
   Stepping is impossible (or at least very hard) if you have several
   tasks in your application.
2) Setting breakpoints on exception occurence.
   This would make some extra test-code unneccesary.
