Architecture: x86_64
Machine: amd64
>Description:
	Some weeks ago I installed NetBSD/amd64 with a snapshot
	built with my i386 box and build.sh -m amd64. Today I wanted
	to use gdb's target kvm to analyze a kernel's core, but
	surprise! there's no existence of it.

information on the arguments for a particular protocol, type
`help target ' followed by the protocol name.

List of target subcommands:

target async -- Use a remote computer via a serial line
target child -- Unix child process (started by the "run" command)
target core -- Use a core file as a target
target exec -- Use an executable file as a target
target extended-async -- Use a remote computer via a serial line
target extended-remote -- Use a remote computer via a serial line
target remote -- Use a remote computer via a serial line

Type "help target" followed by target subcommand name for full documentation.

 Looks like that target kvm depends on kvm... so it will only be
 available when building on native systems.

 Anyway there is not support in gdb6 for amd64! openbsd
 and freebsd got it, but looks like the same code cannot be
 used for us.

 Any toolchain/amd64 guru wants to help?
