   In the future, you might want to run these changes by me first.  The 
   i386-netbsd* target was totally complete in gdb 5.3, and there were no 
   additional changes that needed to be pushed back, except possibly the 
   pthread support.

netbsd kcore support is entirely missing from GDB 5.3, as are most of
the minor changes christos brought forward.  see the two exceptions
i found below..
   
   Please note who is listed as the NetBSD host/target maintainer in the 
   GDB MAINTAINERS file.


christos, in m68knbsd-nat.c you shouldn't have brought forward anything
but the kcore changes and in sparc-tdep.c the GDB_TARGET_IS_SPARC64 hack
must die (there's no way FSF will accept it.)
