Just FYI, the thing that controls the internal register layout of GDB is 
[currently] the remote protocol.  If you try to wire down GDB's internal 
register numbers to match the simulator, you'll likely break GDB's 
compatibility with existing remote targets.

While this limitation is being worked on, it doesn't affect the GDB <-> 
sim maping - that can already be adjusted independant of the other 
register numbering schema.

enjoy,
Andrew
