The version in the tree doesn't work currently :-(.
However, I've got the modifications neccessary to make it work for
NetBSD/i386 using a NE2000 compatible pci-based network card.
I'd like for some people to test this a bit, before I check it in.
If anyone wants to help here, please send me mail.
(And for the curious: IPKDB is just another interface between gdb and
the kernel to allow remote debugging. The main difference is that it
uses UDP/IP.)
Ciao,
Wolfgang
