FYI, if you use a full path to run configure, the mi-basics failures will go away. > I've made more changes to gdb-mi.el now (it use -data-list-changed-registers > now, for a start).

The only reason I haven't approved the gdb-mi.el you last posted was because it depended on the MI patch which you just reminded me to look at (which was an interface change, and I hadn't had a chance to digest it yet). I do not want you to commit anything which uses MI interfaces that don't exist yet! Normally, I'd be perfectly willing to rubber-stamp it in. -- Daniel Jacobowitz CodeSourcery, LLC
