"%%" in format strings and tends to dump core for "%%st". I needed
"%%st" to fix the new gdb ...
Don't use the private version of strerror() either.
Use INTERNALLIB and INTERNALSTATICLIB instead of a private install
rules NOPROFILE and NOPIC. This is only slightly cleaner.
INTERNALLIB was previously only used in compatibility libraries
(libgnumalloc etc.) and INTERNALSTATICLIB was previously unused.
INTERNAL*LIB probably should be replaced by something like NOSTATICO
together with NO{STATICO,PROFILE,PIC}INSTALL.
by the -DNO_MMALLOC flag in gdb/Makefile.
The one thing we lose by doing this, AFAIK, is the possibility of using
mmap. Does anyone use that feature at all ?

files using the texi sources in /usr/src/contrib/gdb/gdb/doc.
I put a pointer to /usr/src/contrib/libreadline/doc into
Makefile.inc in the hope that the appropriate files would be
picked up.
This is based on /usr/ports/devel/gdb.

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
1) add Garrett Wollman's trap frame resolving mods
2) make the `proc' command (kernel debugging) really work
3) allow use of a pid with the `proc' command (previously you had to
provide the address of the proc structure)
Unfortunately, the `proc' command won't work while doing remote debugging.
alias `pcb_cr3' instead. That is still one alias too many, but is convenient
for me since I've replaced the tss in the pcb by a few scalar variables in
the pcb.

how embarassing ! This turns out to be a bug in infptrace.c. Below
is a patch. Could some kind soul apply it ?

of the linker to enforce linking of modules in command line order it is
not possible to link gdb shared with -lcompat.
*HACK ALERT*
Removed -lcompat from LDADD and bring in the necessary functions out of
libcompat as a source module until the linker can be fixed.
This might be useful for debugging applications that use a special LDT.
However, printing of all segment registers is currently broken.
Don't print "last exception: " before the FPU opcode and pc, etc. The
opcode and pc, etc., are for the last FPU _instruction_.
Pass the saved exception status word to print_387_status() so that the
exception(s) that caused or will cause a trap can be seen. The kernel
has supported this since 1.1 or before. The kernel still clobbers the
tag word if a trap occurs.
Remove unused null function clear_regs().
cvs is not being used effectively for gdb. Our old changes get clobbered
and our new changes are mixed with "vendor" changes in the same updates
so they will be difficult to untangle for the next release of gdb. The
revision logs get spammed for each release of gdb.
