Since GDB 6.3 seems to be having some problems,
I think there should be one version of the patch for
the older GDB 5.3 and one for GDB 6.3.x versions...

All of the current Linux installs I've used recently have GDB 6.x, indicating that the GDB 5.x line is antiquated. I don't see a reason to backport any patches, especially at this stage since they don't work yet.

Well, I was porting it to GDB 5.3 anyway - for use with Mac OS X.
That's why.

Does GDB 6.3 not work on OS X?

You probably want to hold off on any porting until the patches work.

GDB does not support the Mac OS X platform out-of-the-box,
Apple has their own GDB branch. Which based on GDB 5.3...

It has been submitted to the GDB project, just not integrated.
Their version of GCC is very much similar. Lots of changes.

Anyway, I can't get the vanilla GDB to work on Linux either ?
