 * \brief fallback breakpoint function
 *
 * This function is used by the NS_BREAKPOINT() macro as a fallback
 * for when breakpoint assembly instructions are not available.  It
 * attempts to halt program execution either by a raising SIGTRAP, on
 * unix systems, or by dereferencing a null pointer.
 * 
 * Normally you should not call this function directly.
