I'm in the process of implementing the GDB remote debugging stuff in the
debugger. It works fairly well, I can set breakpoints, single step,
disassemble, look at stack frames, continue, etc.
I took the path of getting gcc, gas and gld to work so that I can use
the dbx symbol table stuff. This minimized the amount of hacking I had
to do to gdb.
If anyone else is interested i can provide diffs at a later date (both
to gdb and the debugger). This is all based on gdb3.5. Jordan and I both
plan to use gdb in the future.
