With RHIDE you can't. (maybe in the future)

This is because of a not full tested (is this ever possible??) DJGPP
port of gdb. Maybe when I have the time, I'll send the needed patches
to the gdb maintainer (or someone else does it) and the it should work.

The 'ps' register is the 'eflags' register, which is called so on some
i386 systems ("processor status register").
