It's probably Jim Ingham's change but we won't know unless Apple tell us.
AFAIK Apple have made a general copyright assignment of all their work on
GDB to FSF.  When I used Apple's changes (2007-02-03) I just prefixed my
ChangeLog entry with:

	    Based on work by Apple Computer, Inc.

It's fine with me.
