Grant Edwards has contributed a nice log facility for the RDI protocol.
These are "mainenance" subcomands (rdilogfile, rdilogenable).

Maybe you can turn these on.  Execute gdb without the GUI to make things
easier to debug (gdb -nw).  Let us know what you got.

P.S.: As this is not GUI related, we may switch this thread to the
     gdb@source.redhat.com  
list, as it is a gdb core issue.


P.S.2: I have two RDI targets with the Angel monitor in front of me.
I have no Jeeni ICE target though.

This "Remote" thing requires a stub on tha target that speaks the gdb remote
protocol.  This is not meant for RDI targets.

ARM wrote this code.  I've seen this message in some former life, but I can't
recall what was the problem.  Lets see what you get in the log.
