I'm trying to debug a kernel lockup that occurs on my machine with all kernel
versions >2.6.16. I don't have a clue what the root cause of this lockup is,
thus I'm thinking about using a hardware debugger. Can anybody recommend a
reasonably cheap hardware debugger that works with G4 CPUs and can interact
with GDB/DDD?

Abatron BDI-2000.

Oops, but that's not all that cheap.  ($2750USD).  You might try
looking at the Macraigor Wiggler
(http://www.macraigor.com/wiggler.htm), but it has limited powerpc
support.
