Take a look at the trace handler in the debugger button of the
revLibrary stack. It's revTargetStack() that's the culprit. Comment
out the true part of the conditional and leave everything after the
else - makes life bearable again.

NB: most of the time you want the default behavior - *not* tracing
through the rev stacks - as the debugger will trip over itself in
various ways. However, being able to drill down into the rev libraries
themselves is essential if you're developing plugins or working with
the libraries themselves. Caveat Revver.
