Yacc Grammar Debuggers: Are there any? Are they any good/help?

I've been helping augment a twenty-some year old proprietary language within my company. It is a large, Turing-complete language.

Debugger.Break() higher up the stacktrace

I wrote a simple MessageBoxAppender for log4net. I added an OK option to enable debugging (either to an attached debugger, or launching a new one).
