That patch already IMO required a regression test.  So far I never could do
any gdbserver regression testing as gdbserver generates multiple gigabytes of:
	Remote side has terminated connection.  GDBserver will reopen the connection.
	Can't open socket: Too many open files.

I wrote some patches for it but I haven't yet got to posting them, the second
one IIRC does not yet work.  After making gdbserver regression testable
I would like to get back to the original gdbserver problem.
