Not *quite* the last patch.  There are still readline changes required. 
  By and large, I should think these will be rather less controversial; 
most of them are just using autoconf macros to avoid using stuff that 
Windows doesn't have.  There is also one patch that basically says 
"don't use any of that termcap stuff" -- but that's really just a 
Makefile patch not to link in one file under Windows.

I understand that the readline used by GDB contains some GDB-local 
patches.  So, I'm planning to submit my patches to this list, too.  I 
know that normally we'd want to go to the upstream source, but Daniel 
says that's probably not practical in this case.

So, is it OK to submit readline patches here?
