Yes.  Sorry about that.

I just checked in a patch that will allow solaris to build.  In
rw_common(), I had to pass 0 as the attrib argument because I couldn't
find out where to get the attribute.  While I could call lookup region
and break up the operation like is done in target_xfer_memory(), that
should really be done in an upper layer and passed through.  The thing
is, I can't find out how rw_common() is called.  It's called by
ps_p{d,t}{read,write}, but I don't know where those routines are
called from.  

I'd appreciate help from anyone who understands GDB's thread infrastructure.
