As is currently, QUIT won't work unles immediate_quit is set -- and I'm pretty sure that's not how it was intended to work. See the patch Joel submitted for this last August. Elena deferred it to after 6.1 because just setting quit_flag invokes both sets of event handling machinery, potentially quitting twice. http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb-patches/2004-02/msg00530.html given quit_flag hasn't worked for 4+ years, we might as well delete that. At least that way there won't be confusion over what needs to be fixed. Andrew
