When the debugger detaches, it also continues execution. This speeds up debugging, especially when the target is in a remote location. The patch plus more explanation is at: http://www.root.org/~nate/freebsd/ Thanks, Nate To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
