Neither of us understands what parts of the patch do; in fact, I
understand almost none of it. I think it would be a very bad decision
for us to commit structural changes to GDB that we do not understand
(even if they are disabled by default), and I think we have no hope of
keeping the code working and improving it unless it is clearer. These
are the same requirements we apply to other changes.

I'd be happy to help you merge this, if you can break it down into
well-understood and necessary pieces. I can help with making the
native wait case asynchronous, since I know how that works. I also
have a patch lying around that makes target async-remote work a bit
better.
