Like Daniel, I consider "supported" any target for which GDB builds
and works, and which is not declared deprecated.

The same way it benefits by expending already limited resources on
fixing other targets--by being useful to our users.

This part I don't know the details about.  Mark said that it does
break, and I spoke on the assumption that you agree with the fact of
breakage, but don't consider it important.
