I have KGDB in the pipe, at least for i386, should not be hard to fix
for sparc.  The only problem is with me getting time to test this
stuff.  I used the NetBSD support as a base.

Most of us have developped a skill with DDB so KGDB has not been as
asked for as it could be.  I agree DDB is a poor substitute for KGDB
though.  But it works on a single machine, KGDB requires 2, so it has
at least one advantage.
