Commit 56aebc891674cd2d07b3f64183415697be200084 changed gdbstub in way that debugging 32 or 16-bit guest code is no longer possible with qemu for x86_64 guest CPUs. Since that commit, qemu only provides registers sets for 64-bit, forcing current and foreseeable gdb to also switch its architecture to 64-bit. And this breaks if the inferior is 32 or 16 bit. No question, this is a gdb issue. But, as it was confirmed in several discusssions with gdb people, it is a non-trivial thing to fix. So until qemu finds a gdb version attach with a rework x86 support, we have to work around it by switching the register layout as the guest switches its execution mode between 16/32 and 64 bit.
