I am a little confused. At the top of the output there is:
GDB: no debug ports present
KDB: debugger backends: ddb
KDB: current backend: ddb

This makes me think that debugging is already compiled in.
Also in the default XENHVM config option ddb and option kdb are already
included.

I had been seeing the db> prompt. So I tried it again now. When at the
db prompt I typed "trace":
db> trace

This is what you want... correct?
Do you have any idea if there is a fix for this?

Thanks in advance!
