Ahh. For some reason I thought that since ruby-debug didn't work with 
1.9 [yet] that there was no debugger for 1.9.  But apparently there 
is--the default built-in [albeit slow] one. Silly me.

Note also that there's "ruby unroller" if anybody wants to see the trace 
of their program executing:
http://unroller.rubyforge.org/

i.e.
| | | call_one
| | | | return 3
| | | more stuff

Cheers.
