Why would we need to put a breakpoint on a function that replaces the XINT macro? We've lived with a macro (where you cannot put a breakpoint) for many years without any problems (AFAIK). We have debugger commands to display values of Lisp integers. So I don't think debuggability will be a problem in this particular case (although it might be in others).
