4.0 contains serial gdb stubs for some BSPs including the following:

  - ods68302
  - efi68k
  - i386ex
  - pc386

Other folks in the community have used gdb + a BDM interface for the
68360.

As Jiri Gaisler points out, he used it with the SPARC simulator.  SIS is a
cycle accurate simulator for the ERC32 (V7 embedded sparc).

The psim (PPC) simulator is built into gdb and very functional.  It is
possible to get a lot done with it since it supports device models.

I am personally looking forward to Eric Valette's design proposal for a
network based debug interface.
