the full command is "debug kernel", and it halts the IOS kernel since
it will be in suspended state waiting for the serial line GDB debugger
to be attached and tell him to continue. Hence the freeze. 

BinNavi with GDB agent can use the serial line protocol to single-step
the IOS kernel. You can also just patch any gdb source you have around.

cheers
