I was hoping this might fix, (but doesn't seem to) the following case:
./gdb/gdb -ex 'set target-async on' -ex 'attach 7625' -ex 'continue'
./gdb/gdb -ex 'set target-async on' -ex 'attach 7625' -ex 'continue&'
both these commands exhibit:
Continuing.
Program received signal SIGSTOP, Stopped (signal).
.....
(gdb)
thus changing the behavior of '-ex continue' should we turn
target-async on by default.
