(There has been some out of band assignment e-mail which has left me 
pretty confused :-)

Lets see.

RichardE, the above was developed while you were at ARM and is hence 
covered, solely, by an ARM assignment? [yes | no]

If this is true, can I suggest to the Arm maintainers that this be 
considered.  Then BenH can apply fixes to it (always easier and less 
likely to have assignment problems) then new code.  (I understand, third 
hand this is kind of BenH's plan already).

I think this is preferable as it gives GDB's NetBSD/ARM support a clear 
and auditable paper trail.

enjoy,
Andrew
