I managed to build Derby with debug on. Added the following line to
to tools/ant/properties/defaultcompiler.properties:
debug=on
I used Sun's JDK to build Derby.

I am now able to set breakpoints in Derby when I use Eclipse.
All I had to do was add derby.jar to the classpath, and let Eclipse
know where to find the source.
