Hi,

The patch below restores m68k-rtems support, which somehow seems to have
gone lost in gdb, some (very long) time ago :).

I'd politely ask you to apply this patch to cvs-head and gdb-6_3-branch.

TIA,
	Ralf

Checked in on mainline.  What's your motivation for having this on
gdb-6_3-branch?  That branch is basically dead now...

We are about to prepare a new rtems-toolchain release and do not want to
base it on the latest current released version instead of some arbitrary
cvs-snapshots, because cvs-snapshots tend to be in very volatile shape.

To my knowledge gdb-6.3 is the latest released, current version, so
keeping the patches in gdb's official cvs, even if there won't be
another official release helps us to keep our effort small.

For completeness: If you're going to release a new gdb-release in near
future (esp. accompanying GCC-4.0), then using gdb-cvs would also be
fine for us - If not, we'll have to stick to gdb-6.3.
