remote stubs - Gdb for PowerPC

[Michael D. Crawford]

Apple has it's version of gdb enabled to do remote debugging of powerpc, 
to allow one to debug the Mac OS X kernel from another OS X Mac. 
However, it's done via ethernet.  Maybe you could take the serial port 
code from some other stub and port it over to apple's stub.

I understand that the protocol apple uses isn't the standard gdb 
protocol, but some custom one.  I don't think all of apple's changes 
have been merged into the main gdb distribution.

I think the sources you need are available here:

http://cvs.opendarwin.org/index.cgi/gdb/?cvsroot=apple

I also found a tarball on apple's website a while back, but I don't 
remember where it was.

Hope this helps,
