The generic name of CPU is x86_64 in already ported software. It seems that there shoud be create new config directory gdb/config/x86_64. But this processor is extended i386 architecture and many parts of code will be the same as in i386. I think that the best solution is to create this new config directory x86_64 and from tm-x86_64.h include i386/tm-i386.h and redefine some declarations.

Jiri, what do you prefer? > I think that working on a branch is better too. Can I send ssh key?
