I'm trying to decide if it will break something.
The old ``remote packet is defined by the layout of the register
buffer'' problem is lurking ready to strike :-( This would put the SSE
registers into the register buffer causing GDB to try to send them to a
target that, rightly, doesn't expect them (hmm and also doesn't support
a register-write packet)
It is why I was hacking on remote.c. I've two more things to do: the
protocol format command and sort out what ever happend to a
read-register packet proposal that was posted.
