Thanks for the patch.

In gdb a new function should always have an intro comment.  This one
could just explain which gdbarch callback it implements.

Presumably you want builtin_in32 here?  builtin_int is
architecture-dependent.  Or you could just hard-code the size, with a
suitable comment.

The intro comment here should probably say "See nbsd-tdep.h."...

... and then there should be a descriptive comment above this line.

thanks,
Tom
