When I say "the supported way", I'm assuming there is a way GDB provides for FE's to work with it in regards to sending signals, in particularly ^c. If GDB doesn't provide this functionality and it's mere hackers chance that all of us FE's are getting this to work most of the time, then I understand what you mean. Othewise, if GDB has been designed to accept signal during certain circumstances, and not during others, I would love to know what those are so that I can benefit from using this functionality.
