One thing we've thought about doing around here is sticking the
gdb-remote protocol into DDB.  Then say you're running a serial
console, you can drop it into DDB with a BRK and type "gdb-remote" to
start controlling it from your `gdb -k' session elsewhere.  This would
seem to me to be the best of both worlds!
