There are 3 type of sessions:
 - program
 - attached to a prog.
 - core file

they can be in different state and depending on the type(core, attach, etc..)
some commands are not allowed.  For example destroy() a program
that has been detach etc ...

I'll take a second pass at MIInferior.java to clear this out.

Thanks.
