If by remote you mean being able to use a BDM cable, like the P&E
Micro., to a compatiable CPU, it 68332; then I have some code that will
let you do this on FreeBSD.  It is based upon code for Linux.  I have a
patch set for gdb-4.16.  I am working on bringing those over to gdb-4.17
today and TMW.  Look at http://bdm.thehousleys.net/ if the DNS hasn't
made it you you yet http://www.thehousleys.net/bdm/ will work also.
