Yeah.  This patch adds a "debug_printf" function to GDB, but it looks
like SIM already had one.

I don't see any callers for SIM's debug_printf.  Is this dead code
that can be removed, or is it provided as a convenience/library
function?

Steve, you can probably work around this for now by adding:

  #define debug_printf gdb_debug_printf

at the top of GDB's common/common-debug.h.  If SIM's debug_printf
cannot be removed then maybe we will have to add some hack like
this to GDB permanently.

Thanks,
Gary
