OK, maybe this could be the guts of the new debug-on-call function, or
at least documented as what to do when debug-on-entry isn't usable...
Of course an antidote should also be provided to turn it off.

P.S. Kev, your References:
<mailman.1280.1044050572.21513.bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org> does not give my
original post the fame and glory of its original Message-ID causing
its thread to be broken 'in many newsreaders'.  Did you try reading
this group via NNTP of gmane.org for maximal comfort?
