That sounds very sensible; I'll write up one.  For the GDB manual I was
starting to split system-specific info into separate categories for
architecture and OS - perhaps SysV and Darwin options could be moved
into a distinct section, entitled "Options for Specific Operating Systems"
and coming right after the "Hardware Models" section.  If everybody
likes that idea, I'll do the work.
