So what's the official way of making host configurations these days then?

That may be true - I haven't checked - but GDB 6.3 still had two:

   $ find . -name 'xm-*.h'
   ./gdb/config/i386/xm-cygwin.h
   ./gdb/config/i386/xm-go32.h

and these do exactly the sort of things I need done. The MinGW patches  
have merely followed the pattern.

I don't deny that I may need to do it a different way, but somehow I need  
to make the adjustments required by Windows, even though the debugger is  
targeted at SH. Any pointers would be great.

Thanks
