Ok... so here's the catch... most debug APIs do *not* allow one thread to do the attach and another to do continue and another to do wait... they just dont. So there. I have to make a thread per-tracer (on most platforms) and proxy requests (for *some* trace API methods) to it for actual execution. SUCK!

However, this lets async things like GUIs and threaded things like cobra not have to be aware of which one is allowed and not allowed to make particular calls and on what platforms... YAY!
