I dunno, if you are debugging some code that does "Processor
activeProcess", then what process should it get?  I think the "hack" is
desirable anyway.

Also, remember that the debugger might want to use process-local
variables, too.  It shouldn't really be inheritting the debugged
process's variables, should it?
