Re: [patch] "single step" atomic instruction sequences as a whole.


Hi,

I refreshed Paul's patches to apply cleanly on HEAD. I did a test run
and it still works as expected.

Also, i haven't been able to reproduce the issue related at this post:
(http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2006-09/msg00060.html)

This is the test run on my power machine. No Internal errors at this
time.
