Thanks for help me clear what happen. Thanks a lot.

And about the patch I said can handle this issue is "set record query
<on|off>" patch. I cannot find who don't like this patch.

On the other hand, about the nquery.
Let me talk my idea. The nquery is a function of GDB right? MI is a
function of GDB too. Eclipse is a very important soft that support
GDB.
If you want change nquery to query, why not remove nquery directly?

Thanks,
