multi-ice-gdb-server

[Paul M. Øverby <paul dot magnar dot overby at spagat dot no>]

Hi,

After having some trouble building the multi-ice-gdb-server under linux,
I've suddenly got the feeling that this might be a cygwin only solution ?!
I'm having a hard time imagining how this could be the case, but if it
really is, can someone please confirm it ?!

If not, and I should be able to get the job done using linux, I need some
help - look at my trouble below.

Paul
