Hi,
OK, I am now waiting for your new version. And I will port my patch
to KDB v4.0 after you release it in the near future.
By the way, have you ever encountered the problem caused by psr.dd?
If you have time, could you please give some explanation? Thank you.
Sonic Zhang

Lack of time/interest.

I am close to releasing kdb v4.0 which has significant changes to catch
MCA and INIT problems on ia64. Can you wait until kdb v4.0 is out,
then we can look at hardware breakpoints for ia64?
