It would be desirable have symbols to mark breakpoints and the current location.
Perhaps these things are possible in Emacs 21 with its image support Emacs 21. 
The fringe might be a suitable place to put them

However, while I have frequently experimented with the lisp interface of Emacs,
I'm not familiar with its C code so this part would be outside my scope.
