Don't suppose anyone had time to look at this? I don't know if there's any active GDB maintainers, right now, who are interested in the remote protocol. Or e.g. stub developers who are interested, and reading this list. As I said, I have a whole bundle of upcoming proposed additions to the remote protocol; I do my best to design them intelligently and compatibly, and I will document them prettily and post them for review, but the benefit's much lessened if there's no one interested in reviewing them :-) I intend to turn this particular example into a more thought-out proposal this week. And if I'm really lucky, I'll have the target-defined features proposal ready this week also; but don't hold your breath, it might be next week. -- Daniel Jacobowitz CodeSourcery
