I wonder how things work now then?

I'm using FSO and things seem to work just fine (most of the time).

I'll check that as well.

We do need it, actually, unless you intend to satisfy every need of
every program, why not keep the Debug interface?

I'm pretty sure others will want to experiment with programs that need
some access to the GSM modem and hacking frameworkd for each one would
be a hindrance to such experimentation.
