Re: [RFC, RFA] multi-arch PREPARE_TO_PROCEED()


David Smith wrote:

David two thoughts:

	o	is the parameter ``select_it'' needed?

	o	In your opinion, is there any reason
		to have anything other than the
		generic_prepare_to_proceed()?

I'm thinking that we should dump the HP/UX and Linux implementations and
instead, always use your code.  So ... can someone test David's change
under linux threads?

Anyway, I'm ok with the multi-arch part (both with and without the
``select_it'' parameter) and the change to infrun.c.

With respect to the possibility of dumping the HP/UX and linux
implementations - MichaelS or MarkK?
