Steve,

Have you had any luck with this? I am investigating using gdb remotely for debugging on a 386EX embedded system. I would be interested in taking a look at your stub source code. Is it written for the 386?

Thanks,
Steve Drake

The cygwin version of gdb does not seem to know how to handle djgpp exes. Is there a way to compile gdb either for Win32 with Cygwin or with Linux so that it will handle djgpp generated files?
