The (C) should just be 2002 and ``Red Hat, Inc.''.

OK. I was not sure, as the code is older than that. But I guess the copyright goes by the file, not the code...

It needs #ifdef DISASM_H et.al.
Yes, how could I forget!

It should take an explicit ui_out parameter.

Good point.  Of all people I should have remembered that one ;-)

As for the rest vis:

! static int
! gdb_dis_asm_read_memory (bfd_vma memaddr, bfd_byte * myaddr,
!              unsigned int len, disassemble_info * info)
! {
!   extern struct target_ops exec_ops;

I guess we all get to grit our teeth because we know you're just moving around existing code :-)

It seems that it may need some clean-up. But you are right, I am just moving code and I like to do the least possible changes on that pass.

One of us should take a look and see if there is something else. It will be easier to maintain it as it becomes the only disassembler code instead of one of many.


Thanks for looking at this. I will make the changes and check it in.

Regards,
Fernando
