This is broken in any case. I mean, a 32-bit debugger can't really debug a 64-bit task. I don't think this change makes the things really worse. > Also, it relies on bizarre arch details IMO. Heh, it looks as if your patch do not ;) > I think I prefer my version, coming momentarily. I disagree... I don't really understand why do we need the additional complications for the minimal fix which doesn't look very nice anyway. But I won't argue, and your patch looks correct to me. Oleg.
