Hmm, I was wondering what you were talking about until I found this:

(x86-64?)
Thanks!
Next problem ... If I understand things correctly, the set of possible
options, for a given ISA family, is finite. Could that finite list be
made available via a published interface? That way GDB could
incorporate them into its CLI so that things like ``set
disassembly-options <tab>'' worked.
To get the feel for what I'm talking about check gdb/arm-tdep.c which
queries opcodes for the ARM register naming conventions.
enjoy,
Andrew
