Thanks Darin,

Got it working. I converted from trying to locally debug within Eclipse 
to remote debugging and it worked right away. I added all the JBoss JARs 
to the source tab of the Remote Java Application (remote debug) dialog, 
and attached my single ZIP file containing all the sources. Then I 
followed the instructions in the forum posting by Stefan_Kuehn.

...and modified them by setting the java command's "suspend" option to 
"y", so that JBoss stops before the first instruction. Then I was able 
to set a breakpoint in org.Main.main() to debug JBoss starting from its 
initialization.
