The only function doing that in rcirc should be
`rcirc-update-activity-string'.  So I've edebugged that, but sometimes
it occurs that the activity string changes without me being put in the
debugger.

Is there a way to be put into the debugger whenever a variable is set,
no matter what function does it?

Bye,
Tassilo
