the attached test shows it.  if you step from the assignment of xml_test to
the assignment of string_test and do "show locals", you'll see:


Process @3 stopped at #0: 0xb768f434 in
MainClass.Main(System.String[])+0x44 at
/home/toshok/src/debugger-tests/VisualizerTest.cs:9.
   9            string string_test = "Hello World!";
(mdb) show locals
html_test = (System.String) "<xml><prop/> <prop2><subprop/></prop2></xml>"
xml_test = (System.String) "<xml><prop/> <prop2><subprop/></prop2></xml>"
string_test = (System.String) <cannot display object>

Either html_test should retain it's value, or it should be removed from the
list of locals (if the jit has deemed it no longer in scope.)

This is probably happening because the debugger assumes that if a variable
is not in a nested block (i.e. if it's at the toplevel for a method), it is
live for the entire method.
