However, as the subject says, the original poster has been looking for BDM support for a 68360 system, which is slightly different: Before debugging a 68360 the mbar register has to be set. As this is a special register which requires temporary changing SFC/DFC, mbar support must be added in the GDB backend. This feature is not yet in the above mentioned patches. I am working on a new release, and actually have a working 68360 debugger, but this has not been released yet. If anybody needs this very urgently, mail me. Let me also point you to the work of Eric Norum at Univ. Sasketchuan (sp?), Canada, who built another Linux GDB/BDM system. His system has already 68360 support. Sorry, no precise link at hand.
