Also, a "gdbreplay" works for any target/host. I mean, you can just build one, and keep it around for all debugging against all kinds of targets (arm-none-eabi, x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu etc.), no need to have one binary per toolchain, like arm-none-eabi-gdbreplay, x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-gdbreplay, etc. installed.
