    Is anybody currently using remote gdb kernel debugging in -CURRENT? I
    tried yesterday (embarrassingly, during my kernel debug tutorial), and
    it looks as if things are broken.

    Specifically, I was doing it in conjunction with firewire. The kernel
    was built with 'options GDB', and it showed that the corresponding gdb
    functions were included, but the sysctl debug.kdb.available shows only
    ddb. I did a bit of looking around for what might have caused it, but
    wasn't successful.

    Any ideas?

    Greg
