To align with subject, I doubt it should be "stub-side" rather than
"target-side".


I would prefer to say "target-side" everywhere actually - no one really knows what we mean by "stub", and if they try to understand it by looking at, say, our foo-stub.c files, they'll get really confused. :-) "Target-side" has the right connotation of "outside GDB" but without committing to a specific implementation strategy - like conditional breakpoint tests in h/w debug registers, which would be the most awesome...
