Hey Pedro,

You mean I haven't addressed everything you commented?  If that is the
case, I truly apologize.  I'll go over the comments again.

Sure, I'll see what I can come up with.

Offhand I don't see how to get rid of these functions (on fork_inferior)
without creating even more stubs on gdbserver, but I'll see.

Indeed.

OK, so from what I understood, this part of the code can be removed,
right?  I guess removing all the leftover code is something to be done
in another patch series.

Right, I'll do that, thanks for the catch.

No.  And I see what you mean: we should check it before erasing the last
whitespace.  Will fix.

Yes, I'll fix it.

OK, that's a fair point.  I had renamed the variable to "argv" because
it was really acting like argv, but with your recent request to use
"program" again that doesn't make sense anymore.  I'll rename the
variable back to "args".

Because "args" is a char *?  I haven't checked if "args" could be made a
const, but I can.

Sure, that works too.  I'll do that.

Thanks for the review,
