I checked with the tools guys here and they don't yet do !MMU testing,
although I think it's on the list.

I don't think fixing this in mainline until we know the full story behind
this is the right thing to be doing.  There's no point fixing a feature
which no one's using.

Understood. Paul - would you please be able to confirm that:

(a) GDB is currently broken on uclinux? (it certainly looks that way)
(b) My proposed patch fixes the problem?

If you don't have an environment set up, I wonder if there's somebody else
we can poke who's playing with this stuff.
