I'm interested in writing a GDB remote debug protocol adapter for the

Now I just need a way to redirect or log the debugger output where I can
get at it.  How would I do that?  The log/logdest/logflags commands look
potentially useful for this, but it's utterly unclear how to use them.

Even better would be a way to get the debugger command-line to attach to
a pipe, pty master or files directly (i.e., without a window).

Any ideas?

You could enable the TCP support in the debugger and connect that way. The extradata key should be "VBoxInternal/DBGC/Enabled" - set it to 1. You can change the port (.../Port, defaults to 5000) and the listen address (.../Address) as well of course. The debugger will be not enabled (silently) if the port number collides with already running apps.
