The integer value will be one of the #define values that starts with EXC_ from /usr/include/mach/exception_types.h on MacOSX. On other platforms it will be something that describes the exception. You really don't need to worry about displaying this at all as the text from the  exception should be enough for you to get by (just show the description) which should be accesssed with:

All of the other values are normal stop reasons that are always easily dealt with.

Displaying different icons on gutter and against threads in list when stopped is great idea. Thank you. Will do it in this way ;-)
