Thanks!

The GDB part looks fine to me. Want to commit it separatelly to the
GDBserver bit?

I think this misses defining __attribute__ to empty on non-gcc. It's
this bit in ansidecl.h that handles it:
#if (GCC_VERSION < 2007)
# define __attribute__(x)
#endif
I also see that nowhere is GCC_VERSION defined in server.h. My fault, I missed
it when importing gdb_assert to gdbserver. :-/ We're currently always picking
the else branch in:
if (GCC_VERSION >= 2004)
#define ASSERT_FUNCTION __PRETTY_FUNCTION__
#else
#if defined __STDC_VERSION__ && __STDC_VERSION__ >= 199901L
#define ASSERT_FUNCTION __func__
#endif
#endif
Your patch adds more uses. If you don't feel like fixing this,
I'll fix it after your patch is in.
