This one isn't for nothing, it fixes a problem. It's just not all of the
work to get gdb/gdbserver to work for x86/ce .

I don't think so.

CE -> unicode, both ARM and x86.
The DLL name was in the right place, it's just the code to read it
didn't work right.

As I said, I'm still trying to figure out what is happening, how x86/CE
works, etc. But CE on x86 looks similar to CE on ARM.

Except stuff like the packaging. None of the PocketPC type functionality
on the box that I'm using. But the box isn't a PDA so that's logical.

More info/patches when I have them ...
