The suggestion of gdb_byte was yours, so it rightfully falls to you to
propose more formally on gdb@ (I certaintly don't want to jump in and
steal your thunder). Can we finally do that?
I will happily do whatever it takes, but I'm unsure what you want me
to say there. That I propose to replace "char *" with "gdb_byte *"?
Somehow, I doubt that this is all you read into ``propose formally''.
But if all you are asking is to start a thread on gdb@, I'll do this.
In any case, I think Mark's question (why not use "void *") is
something that we should discuss first, since if we accept his
recommendation, there will be no need to introduce a new data type.
