Hi all,

I crosscompile the gdb server for sh and I have trouble to debug a 
simple application,
using it.

I try with the gdb-6.8

./configure --target=sh4-linux

gdbserver
sh3-linux-gcc is a nptl toolchain

CC=sh3-linux-gcc ./configure --host=sh4-linux

server side

./gdbserver-6.8  192.168.10.156:1234 ./foobar_sample                       
Process ./foobar_sample created; pid = 
817                                     
Listening on port 
1234

Can anybody help to find the problem?
