For thread completeness, I've started the thread on the remote
protocol change (I should have said extension) here:

Small remote file transfer protocol adition
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2008-01/msg00302.html

And proposed a patch that makes gdbserver build again on WinCE
(without remote protocol extensions) here:

[gdbserver] Make mingw32ce gdbserver build again
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2008-01/msg00838.html

I'd like that at least the later went into GDB6.8, so I've added a
link to the patch to the wiki. Thanks Joel for putting the issue
there for me in the first place.
