The interaction between watchdogs and debuggers can be improved
a fair bit, but I'm not quite sure how it should work.

I think the scenario I prefer is that a sysctl defines the timeout
which the watchdogs should be set for on entry into a debugger
and that the watchdog command should be able to set a specified
timeout.

Feel free to hack on this subject if you feel like it.
