[gnu.gdb.bug] Question: gdb on register window machines

[[please mail me any replies directly: I won't be on this mailing list till we

I have started trying to port GDB 2.7 to a Pyramid 90x.  I have
determined that I don't understand how to describe the Pyramid stack
to GDB, because the Pyramid has register windows.

I've looked at this enough to believe that as GDB currently stands,
it's not clear how to best to deal with register-window machines.
Has anyone considered this (GDB on a SPARC, anyone) ? Can GDB
currently support register-window machines?  If so, how should 
it be done?  If not, is anyone interested in adding such support?
