I also think it's too dangerous putting this kind of code in before
2.1 ships.  It's clearly `new features', so we should hold it back for
an even-numbered release.

OTOH, the `no DDB while the VT is in process mode' hack is rather
simple, and does no big harm -- even if it's ``not exactly the Right
Thing [tm]''.
