If the changes to the PTII core were simply to add additional diagnositc 
output during debugging/development, perhaps we should investigate using one 
of the runtime Aspect Oriented Programming systems.  One (or more) of them do 
not require recompilation and use either reflection or bytecode manipution to 
inject additional functionality for specific methods.

My opinion of AOP is not that high, but this application seems pretty 
appropriate.
