Released version 0.20 "Bruxelles" of the Mono Debugger :-)

• This version of the debugger requires the latest Mono from SVN; it won't work with the Mono 1.1.15 release.
• We now preserve breakpoints across different invocations of the same target.
• Big API cleanups.
• Cleaned up method lookups; there's a very complex test for them in test/testsuite/TestMethodLookup.cs.
• Lots of stability improvements.
• Fixed a very old GC bug which was preventing us from running xsp inside the debugger.
• Fixed a very old race condition which was causing crashes at exit.
• Fixed line numbers in stack traces.
• Added experimental support for hardware watchpoints - I needed them to track down a race condition.
• Unfortunately, a `make check' now requires even more memory than before; I'm still investigating the issue. I'm currently using `ulimit -Sm 1000000 -Sv 1000000'.
• The next releases will be "Dublin", "Sidney" and "Cologne".
