It's a "bug" in Vinum: previously, if you called debug, even to set the debug flags, it also set remote gdb debugging: vinum debug 8 sets request trace debugging. vinum debug takes you into the remote debugger. Now there's a separate flag (256) to set remote debugging. To get remote debugging, you must do vinum debug 256 (once) vinum debug (every time you want to enter the debugger) I'm just packaging up a new version of the distributions.
