The problem is that Angel is using the CPU exception to do the
single-stepping. When the eCos HAL executes and takes over that
exception, Angel essentially dies.

What you want to do is either (a) comment out that code to debug the
application with Angel or (b) port RedBoot and make it the primary
monitor and debug agent of the system.

RedBoot knows how to debug eCos applications, Angel does not.
