From
http://forum.world.st/Oops-I-put-a-halt-in-a-startup-method-td3800163.html :
    My image appears for an instant and then crashes. Is there any way to
recover from this?

I made some progress, but I'm not sure I'm on the right track...
  I built a debug VM and found primitivePerform, which is apparently called
by the following: 
    FeaturesDB perform: #startUp: with: resuming 

  How will I know which call to skip/break on? Maybe there is there a way,
from the VM side, to get the receiver class name as a string? If I knew that
the receiver was FeaturesDB, that would be the one...

And then once I have the right call, can I just skip over it?

Sean
