Re: filtering of commands during async operation

[Jim Ingham <jingham at apple dot com>]

The all the targets we support in Apple's  version of gdb are async - 
including the Mach-O native target.  It took a bunch of mucking around 
to get it working (and to get things like commands that run the target 
working).  And I am pretty sure that I broke the remote async in the 
process, however, there were a couple of hacks in there (marked as such 
in the code) that messed us up and I didn't have the patience at the 
time to make both work...

So I would need to do some clean-up before our code would be ready for 
submission, but as a proof of concept it might be useful to folks, and 
in our system it works pretty well.
