You're working around a gdb bug it in a way that means a fixed gdb can't 
possibly work.  IMO the cure is worse than the disease.  Changing the register 
set reported to gdb part way through a session will always break. There's no 
possible way for gdb to what state the target is going to be in until it 
actually queries it.
