Yes, I should have mentioned that.  We started with Rob's findings and 
worked from there.

If you don't register the callback then it never gets called (I assume 
registering
test_break makes RE_local_test_break point to test_break).  I believe the 
default is a function that always evaluates false, hence it disabled all 
the calls making the ESC key non-functional.

Hos and I made it so it's no longer a major CPU draw, but still works.
