Currently there is just no nice way to debug the jit code with a
debugger, I've done some investigation into adding debug support to
the LLVM generator, but it's definitely non-trivial,

Usually I just end up adding lp_build_print_value statements to the
generator code so you can at least get JIT debug print statements, the
generators are in draw_llvm.c for the vs/gs/tess shaders.
