I didn't see an explicit "remote_ops.to_attach" in remote.c function but I
notice that you're doing SOLIB_CREATE_INFERIOR_HOOK.  We also do that when
we create a process.  Just for chuckles, I tried to do that in our to_attach
function but it didn't work.  If I call it before I set inferior_ptid to the
child process, I get a solib_event_bkpt that is relocated incorrectly.  If I
do it after, then for some reason the target_wait() function spins blocks
forever trying to read from the inferior.  On the bright side, the
relocation of the solib breakpoint is done correctly (I printed the
breakpoint_chain) but the lockup is a real puzzle.  I'm wondering if somehow
my host and target are getting out of sync.  Fun, fun, fun.  I think I'm
going to have to attach to our remote agent and see what the heck it thinks
its doing.

cheers,

Kris
