That's exactly what I'm trying to do. My immediate interest is making
Linux work, but if we IA32 maintainers talk about it a bit, we can all
use the same solution.
There's a lot of gratuitous duplication among the gdb/config/i386
headers. (For fun, diff nm-i386v.h and nm-i386sco.h.) So I don't think
there's any technical reason we couldn't do a great deal of
unification.
