It seems that this train of thought indicates a self-contradictory
attitude. Either the remote protocol is "good enough" over udp, or it
isn't. If on one hand you think it's good enough to be included
within mainline gdb, then don't argue that it's not good enough to
actually work.
Besides, the failure scenarios described due to UDP can equally happen
over other transports, due to failures on the host / target. It would
be wiser to tighten up gdb's and targets' handling of such conditions
(with more clever timeout and error handling, synchronization
recovery) than focus so much on UDP.
