It is not the world's greatest piece of writing, but my dissertation
describes the design and implementation of a retargetable debugger. It
discusses many of the basics, including getting information from the
compiler, implementing breakpoints, walking the stack, etc. The emphasis
is on techniques for minimizing and isolating machine-dependent code, so
it won't help you regarding compatibility with existing debuggers,
compilers, and linkers.
