 If you want @value{GDBN} to be able to stop your program while it is
 running, you need to use an interrupt-driven serial driver, and arrange
-for it to execute a breakpoint instruction when it receives a control C
-character.  That is the character which @value{GDBN} uses to tell the
-remote system to stop.
