Don't Press CTRL+BREAK When Debug History On Under OS/2
-------------------------------------------------------

- Pressing CTRL+BREAK to end a debugging session while recording debug
  history in OS/2 can result in a corruption of the files used to
  record debug history. Turn off debug history before ending a
  debugging session with CTRL+BREAK.

  If you do press CTRL+BREAK while debug history is on, do not try to
  reuse the files containing the debug history information (.CVH or
  .CVI files).
