Looking at the maintainers files in the entire sourceware 'src' CVS
tree, there are only maintainers for NetBSD listed for gdb (and that
only for "native and host" debugging, in the person of jtc).
Historically, NetBSD targets have been really poorly maintained in the
'master' GNU sources, for no (or little) fault of the master sources'
maintainers. It doesn't surprise me that there's no real maintainer
for NetBSD in most of the tools. And no, I don't want that hat
either. (I know one or two people who _should_ be wearing that hat,
but that's another issue... 8-)
Anyway, I'll continue waiting a few more days, and check them in if I
get an explicit OK or if I time out. 8-)
