Yes, that's one way of doing it. I looked into this, but the classes to handle
gdb were quite small and it didn't seem worthwhile to do this. And, let's face
it, it was much more fun writing those classes specifically for kdevelop that
trying to fit kdbg into kdevelop :-)

Exactly right, and if you patch kdevelop with my classes, that's precisely
what you get.
