Sorry, I ment without the patch (but I think you've answered that anyway).

While "run" and "load" are fairly obvious sync points for GDB and its
executable I'm not sure that "target remote" is - it's behavior is kind
of sort of a screwed up version of attach.

What does that do (as far as I can tell it doesn't re-read symbols)?
