in reply to Driving maniacally with the debugger
You could manipulate &DB::sub.
I'd probably install a wrapper which only calls the original code if my conditions are met or manipulates $DB::deep before calling.*
See http://search.cpan.org/dist/perl-5.8.7/lib/perl5db.pl#sub
and perldebguts#Writing-Your-Own-Debugger
update
*) alternatively setting $DB::single to 2 corresponds to the n cmd. Use local to avoid global effects.
