Thanks for taking a look.

Patch with ChangeLog amended as you suggest attached.

Hopefully, I will have a few more patches, so yes please.

Subject: [PATCH] Retrieve segment registers on Windows amd64

For amd64, CONTEXT_FULL does not contain CONTEXT_SEGMENTS, which seems to be
needed to retrieve all the segment registers.  Add it explicitly, with a little
de-cruftification.

The value of the segment registers isn't terribly useful on amd64, but at least
this makes the output of 'info registers' correct.

before:

(gdb)  i r cs ss ds es fs gs
cs             0x33     51
ss             0x2b     43
ds             0x0      0
es             0x0      0
fs             0x0      0
gs             0x0      0

after:

(gdb) i r cs ss ds es fs gs
cs             0x33     51
ss             0x2b     43
ds             0x2b     43
es             0x2b     43
fs             0x53     83
gs             0x2b     43
