I obviously can't review the protocol implementation.  So ...

Two comming changes to keep in mind:

- having multiple live target stacks is on the horizon, that will meen 
that most statics will need to be consulated into a struct

- async is similar (assuming it can be re-started).  you'll want to 
think about the consequences.


anyway, some more general comments ...

"defs.h" is _always_ included first.  I also noticed that one of the 
other headers was pulling in <stdlib.h>?  Is it needed.

Is all of the following needed?  Look at how remote-io.c handled this 
problem.

GDB's trying to switch to observers, but first, is this even used?  Or 
is another hook/observer already available?

These all shouldn't be needed.  Instead extract_[un]signed_integer 
should be able to do the job (I'm guessing that this part of the 
protocol is target byteordered).

Use LONGEST if you need a large integer.

Shouldn't these be functions?

debug info should go to gdb_stdlog.

Ya!

Can you start a discussion about these commands (I guess on gdb@)?  (For 
the moment, leave them disabled?).

The revamping of "to_query" opens the potential for implementing this in 
a clean generic way.

Can this be moved to the end of the file?

See "remote.c" for how to set things up so that "set remote-nto ...", or 
"set nto ...?" works.  You'll, separatly, need doco.

For the "set qnx*", suggest, locally, investigating GDB's mechanism for 
deprecating commands.

BTW, "nto_remove_file" isn't meaningful.

Can you explain these?  "info threads" vs "pidlist".  "maint info nto 
memory" or "info memory" vs "meminfo"?  As with "download", disable them 
for now.

Is the below needed?  I don't think it belongs in remote-nto as even a 
native will need to do this transformation.
