If it's not used by other programs, I'd recommend that it be moved to
gdb_wait.h (with an underscore, not a dash). I created gdb_string.h
and gdb_stat.h long ago for the same sort of reasons.
I agree, this sounds like the right idea.
We might also want to consider creating a gdb_fcntl.h header to wrap
fcntl.h. It would would define O_BINARY to 0 on hosts that don't
distinguish between text and binary files; instead of having that
definition scattered throughout various *.c files.
This would be good too, we have picked up a number of redundant
definitions... Might be a good idea to consider doing the include
of fcntl.h in defs.h, it's mentioned explicitly in nearly half the
source files already, and the compiletime overhead of including it
always would be pretty minor.
