Subject: [PATCH 2.6.27-rc3 20/29] mdb: export the console redirection handle
Date: Thu, 14 Aug 2008 00:14:38 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200808140614.m7E6EcMB006257@wolfmountaingroup.com> (raw)

export the console redirection handle to allow 
the debugger screen to becoime visible again during exceptions.  Export
of this variable allows the debugger to switch to the current screen 
in order to enable the debugging console on systems with a redirected
system console.
