Re: [rfc] [00/16] Get rid of current gdbarch

[Maxim Grigoriev <maxim at tensilica dot com>]

Hello, Markus,

I think you missed xtenda-tdep.c.
First time, you asked for an approval but never checked the patch in.

What do you want me to do : to wait until you update it and then test 
it, or just go ahead and do it by myself ?
