This is a bit off topic, and even maybe a dream-that-will-never-come-true,
but I've been wondering about sharing the wait loop between GDB and gdbserver.
Sounds like a big job at the very least (in order to extract the code
from GDB for the platform currently supported), but do you think that
it's actually doable / worth the effort? It's just that we're (actually,
mostly you!) are very regularly fixing the same problem twice; once
in GDB, and then once in gdbserver. Given the complexity of this code
on some platforms, it's a real shame.
