No... you can do this using 'gdbserver :1234 --attach `pidof -s foo`. Killall5/pidof is a 9K binary; I don't want to add this feature to the
server directly when it's already available so lightweightly.
Excellent !  Someday I'll know every command available and then I'll die happy...  Thanks.

Hmm, can you create a bug report describing this (see http://sources.redhat.com/gdb/bugs/) (or better update the documentation :-)? It should be mentioned in the documentation.
