(There has been some out of band assignment e-mail which has left me
pretty confused :-)

Lets see.

RichardE, the above was developed while you were at ARM and is hence
covered, solely, by an ARM assignment? [yes | no]

If this is true, can I suggest to the Arm maintainers that this be
considered. Then BenH can apply fixes to it (always easier and less
likely to have assignment problems) then new code. (I understand, third
hand this is kind of BenH's plan already).

I think this is preferable as it gives GDB's NetBSD/ARM support a clear
and auditable paper trail.

enjoy,
Andrew
