Something went wrong during transmission, and I missed that. Just sent
out those two as well.

That's nothing those patches changes (it's our current and only
debugging model for SMP until gdb provides a complete solution).

The recent discussion went around how to deal with some other gdb
limitation: debugging targets that run in x86's 16/32 bit mode vs. the
target arch being advertised as 64 bit. Existing qemu code doesn't work
with existing gdb in this scenario, and the question was how to deal
with it until gdb is improved.
