- Subject: [RFA] gdb/win32-nat.c: do not call CloseHandle on process and thread handles
Following the discussion
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2007-10/msg00131.html
and
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2007-10/msg00502.html
I resubmit a part of my original patch that only contains the
removal of all calls to the win32 API CloseHandle
with thread or process handles.
This patch allows to debug gdb with itself on mingw32
port.
The patch was tested for cygwin target, by running
the testsuite with and without this patch.
The testsuite shows no changes.

PS: I am unsure about the proper way to decribe the change
in the ChangeLog...
