So, the most simple way - to use JDK instead of JRE. In this case we can use breakpoints in system library. BUT we cant monitor values of local variables. For this purpose we should recompile rt.jar (without sun.* packets, because they are proprietary). Process of recompilation described there. It's in russian, but at the and of article situated the link to the result rt-dbg.jar.
