   Hi all,

  Yep, that's it.  You know the trick about cd'ing into a subdir of a
GCC build tree and doing "make all" there to only build that component?  It
works here too.  Configure for your debug host and "make all install" in
your top level dir; then configure for your debug target, cd into the
gdbserver directory, and make all there.  (You could make install as well
but it wouldn't be very useful!)  I was looking at this stuff over last
weekend, wondering whether to port gdbserver to vxworks...
