[slime-devel] new debugger behavior?

Last week I upgraded from slime-2.0_p20070816 to slime-2.0_p20080731 (these are the gentoo ebuild names). We're looking at a pretty big jump here; these builds are a year apart. In that year, something changed in the debugger that is not to my liking. I am hoping that it is a feature that I can turn off.

When I hit an error in my code, I no longer enter the debugger. Instead, I just get a printed backtrace in the REPL. If I put a (break) in the code, I do enter the debugger. I would like to enter the debugger on all errors, like the good old days.

Does this sound like a feature that was added in the last year? Or do I need to look elsewhere for the cause?
