I had exchanged mail with Fabrice over a year ago on this one. The patch you applied for the irq stepping fixes had never been formally re-submitted by myself or had that piece cleaned up. I had posted some old patches in response because someone asked about them on the mailing list. Unless you beat me too it, I will gladly submit a patch to clean up stepping after the gdb monitor cleanup. :-) Jason.
