We've already discussed this on IRC, but for the benefit of others
finding this in the archives ...

xmlRegisters=i386 merely serves as indication that gdb understands i386
target descriptions.  That was something added in order to allow
stubs/gdbserver to be backwards compatible with older gdb's
that _didn't_ understand i386 target descriptions.

What you need to do is to include 'qXfer:features:read+' in the
stub's qSupported reply, and then implement the qXfer:features:read
packet.
