Pedro told me there were some reasons in the thread but I do not remember any
valid one, sizes were made invalid. I will have to re-read the threads again.

There are only abstract opinions that there may exist systems not supporting
this or that but no valid system.

Developing GDB is not constructive this way, it is still about repeated
catching of crashes from forgotten destructor or exception here and there, the
question of next crash is not if but when.
