Nice, looks great! Just some comments on tests.
This is a forward of a comment from the archer list on the original
patch-set. On targets that do support syscall breakpoints, but there is
no xml database (like on x8664) will these tests just fail? Are they
gated to XFAIL (or however one would gracefully fail here).
My only other comment is how this would work on remote targets (i.e.
remote target is x86, but your host is PPC).
