reading old a.out core files, which are totally 100% non-understandable
to the gdb floating-point reader if you have SSE turned on.
This should be the last of the world build breakers...
end of the include searching. We really need a real fix for the issue of
which set of headers to use in compiling the cross-tools -- /usr/include,
or /usr/src/include.
call and trap entry points so they're easy to find and change
- Use the cpuhead and allcpu list to locate globaldata for the current
cpu, rather than SMP_prvspace or __globaldata
- Use offsets into struct globaldata directly to find per-cpu variables,
rather than symbols in globals.o

when using gdb on a remote target. The fix is to restrict PT_GETDBREGS
calls to `child' and `freebsd-uthreads' targets solely.
I've been in some conversation with Brian about this, and this solution
seems to be the most appropriate one.

`wait.h' that was in contrib/binutils/, however this wait.h went away with
bintuils 2.10.0 so I `cvs rm'ed it. Now we find gdb will not build. This
binutils wait.h contained nothing we didn't already have in <sys/wait.h>.
So just hack a symlink to it.
with Brian's kernel support for i386 debug registers. This makes
watchpoints actually usable for real-life problems. Note: you can
only set watchpoints on 1-, 2- or 4-byte locations, gdb automatically
falls back to [sloooow] software watchpoints when attempting to use
them on variables which don't fit into this category. To circumvent
this, one can use the following hack:
watch *(int *)0x<some address>
David O'Brien is IMHO considering to get this fully integrated into the
official GDB, but as long as we've got the i386/* files sitting around
in our private FreeBSD tree here, the feature can now be tested more
extensively, so i'm committing this for the time being.
This work has been done in order to debug a tix toolkit problem, thus
it has been sponsored by teh Deutsche Post AG.
