hmmm, I do get frustrated with my inability to communicate on this
mailint list.

When I say "the supported way", I'm assuming there is a way GDB provides
for FE's to work with it in regards to sending signals, in particularly
^c. If GDB doesn't provide this functionality and it's mere hackers
chance that all of us FE's are getting this to work most of the time,
then I understand what you mean.

Othewise, if GDB has been designed to accept signal during certain
circumstances, and not during others, I would love to know what those
are so that I can benefit from using this functionality.
