I'm not sure it's easy to do for DJGPP in such way as it would 
work reliably enough in all environments (DOS, Win9X, WinNT, Win2K, 
WinXP, DOSEMU, ...). 

Maybe one solution could be to move librhgdb and libgdb out from
RHIDE in a separate package and add some compatbility layer, so
it would be possible to choose between several posibilities (one 
of them but not only one could be librhgdb). One could then choose
when running configure
