Thanks for the tip.

I checked out the latest dbgcom.c and include/debug/dbgcom.h from CVS
and built GDB with them.  Unfortunately, the resulting binary doesn't
work correctly.  In the following fragment from go32-nat.c:

	{
	  if (a_tss.tss_irqn == sig_map[i].go32_sig)
	    {
#if __DJGPP_MINOR__ < 3
	      if ((status->value.sig = sig_map[i].gdb_sig) !=
		  TARGET_SIGNAL_TRAP)
		status->kind = TARGET_WAITKIND_SIGNALLED;
#else
        status->value.sig = sig_map[i].gdb_sig;
        status->kind = TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED;
#endif
	      break;
	    }
	}

if I enable the v2.03 part, breakpoints stop working (GDB says the
program got SIGTRAP instead), and if I enable the v2.02 part, Ctrl-C
kills the debuggee, like with the old dbgcom.c

Is there anything else in the library I should update besides dbgcom.c
and <debug/dbgcom.h>?

Maybe, if it's not much of a bother, you could send me your source of
dbgcom.c and your libdbg.a, so I could verify that I didn't do
anything stupid when I upgraded dbgcom.c?

I'm mainly concerned that something has gone wrong when I checked
dbgcom.c into CVS, and we will release a buggy libdbg.a with v2.03,
after all the efforts that went into improving the debug support.

I did that, thanks (the fragment above is part of that patch).
