3.6 RC1

If you export & install the debug.core/ui examples into the SDK, the PDA debugger cannot be run from the host IDE since the launcher is set up to expect the PDA VM implementation to be in the "bin" output directory... You end up with class not found exceptions:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/eclipse/debug/examples/pdavm/PDAVirtualMachine
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.eclipse.debug.examples.pdavm.PDAVirtualMachine
	at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(Unknown Source)
	at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)
	at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(Unknown Source)
	at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source)
	at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source)
	at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source)
Could not find the main class: org.eclipse.debug.examples.pdavm.PDAVirtualMachine.  Program will exit.

We could re-packcage this, compiling the PDA VM & support classes into a separate jar that gets built with a ant script.
