Thanks to both of you for the info. I'll look at SID. The "architectural
only" part of the GDB based ARM simulator would probably have been fine --
all I wanted was something I could look at when I wasn't physically seated
next to the hardware, but I didn't have tremendous luck bringing that up
based on 10 minutes of work :-)
