Now, the great thing would be to have this included in xmon with the
bootloader beeing able to load the System.map along with the kernel. I
think Cort already "prepared" for this in 2.3.x.

Another thing that would be useful: Currently, xmon works in "on-screen"
mode on all PMU-based machines. It would probably be easy to add this
capability to CUDA and other PS/2 like machines. It would be a bit more
difficult for the USB keyboards since a special polling routine should be
added to the OHCI driver, but since the new macs lacks serial ports...
