I submit that this should be documented in gdbint.texinfo. I think _any_
feature that needs arch-specific code to be supported should be mentioned
in the internals manual.
Assuming the code is accepted, could you please consider writing a short
section about this? It sounds like the comments you've put in the code
could serve as the good starting point for the documentation.
