It actually tries to run GDB on the target, but I get your point.
That's a known limitation of the current testing infrastructure, that I
hope can be addressed in a followup patch.  Sorry that this hasn't been
very high priority to me.  I have still been working on features and
maintaining the branch up to date.  I'll now have more time to complete
the features and address this issue.

Now that's surprising to me.  What is it that you're referring to?

Sorry, I was pretty sure I'd already done that, but it's obvious I
haven't.  This is bad.  I'll prepare a follow up patch to address this,
and post it for approval before I install the merge patch.

Thanks for reminding me of these important issues.
