   Acknowledgement: The tracing mechanism is based on the tracing
   mechanism developed at Infineon (formerly Siemens HL). Though this
   code is somewhat different, and significantly enhanced, the basics
   are identical to what was originally contributed by Infineon.  The
   contribution of Infineon in the development of this tracing
