I've used a Jeeni with GDB and a SNDS100 board. Lovely stuff. Pretty
much plug'n'play, but you have to realize that thread debugging becomes
impossible when using a hardware debugger (unless there's special
provisions for it - which I don't think there is for the Jeeni).

Uh? As far as I know, the only debugger you can use with eCos is GDB
(maybe there are commercial debuggers that support ELF and DWARF, I
don't know). If you want "easier" maybe you should try Insight (which is
a GUI layer over GDB).
