You can't. I've never used gdbserver, and i don't see any need for me to
start using it. And since i don't use it, i wouldn't be able to test
anything code changes i could introduce there.

TBH, i don't have any plans for further contributions to gdb. There is only
one more feature that i thought could be added (using Windows API to obtain
stack traces, enhancing the built-in gdb stack walker; thus gdb would be
able to show useful stack trace even while being deep inside W32 API
calls), but the code was so complicated for me that i've failed to even
*find* where to start.
