Remote debugging doesn't work in the DJGPP port.  It shouldn't be too
hard to make it work (in fact, an old port of GDB used to support
this), but somebody needs to write the remote debugging module that
will work e.g. via the asynchronous port using one of the available
async libraries in the v2tk directory on SimTel.NET.

Did you actually try to use that version to debug C++ and failed?  I
cannot imagine that somebody would *remove* language support from
GDB.  I would guess that the Ada support was *added* to the stock
version of GDB, and if so, the C++ support is there also.
