Everyone here can only test his/her diff on a limited number of
combination of arch and os.  If diff breaks gdb or gdbserver, it should
be fixed.

To my patch, it is like an equivalent transformation.  Code moved in gdb
and gdbserver are exactly 100% same.  AFAICS, i386 debug register
manipulation code is the same on gdb and gdbserver.  Why do you think it
is not a good idea to move them?  Am I missing something?
