Thank you (for the quick response) and sorry if I was not as clear
as I should have been! what I meant and was hoping to find was
a source code debugger support, like gdb[1], where one can debug
a running kernel with full access to the source code in a gdb session
environment from a remote machine.
I'm new to OpenBSD and found kgdb(7)[2] manual from 6.1 describing
the process very similar to what I do daily with FreeBSD but (as I
mentioned earlier) the code seems to be removed since 6.2.
So, is there any alternative for remote debugging a running OpenBSD
kernel using gdb? anyhow, I appreciate it if one can point me to the
right direction and I don't mind any hard work in the process :-)

Yes, see the ddb(4) manual page.
