Yes, I'll import to gdb6 > Import it just as src/contrib/gdb. No. There are too many dependencies. I want it tested and validated before I kill the debugger we have now. Once everything is ok, I have no problem reimporting to contrib/gdb and removing contrib/gdb6 at that time we can also discuss whether we want gdb to depend on binutils again or not. > > People can pound on it while I > > finish support for kernel debugging. > > I have ports/devel/gdb6 working with full kernel debugging already.

No more local changes to support kernel core files or KVM and kernel modules and no more local changes to support libc_r. Enough of that. Threading support is going to be implemented using libthread_db and kernel support is going to be implemented using IPC with a new front-end tool (kgdb). People are already working on the various aspects and the last thing we need is a disruptive gdb import. -- Marcel Moolenaar USPA: A-39004 marcel@xcllnt.net
