Indeed, I'll add that.

Sounds like an issue similar to the one in patch #4 (and also patch #15).
I was thinking that we'll probably need to generalize a bit the fix in patch #4,
by adding a "set_general_process" function to gdbserver based on that
(naming mirrors gdb/remote.c's own set_general_process).
Thanks,
