Please don't use "inferior" for darwin specific things. It is a very general term, and collides with what we may want to do with the common gdb/inferior.c module.

Ok, will change to "maint darwin-debug"


We have "set debug" that is generally available; some of the options are clearly maintenance-only, such as "set debug infrun", so that seems a convenient place for a Darwin-specific flag. (We could add "maint set debug", but that seems a little too pedantic :-) .)
