I haven't tried the GDB testsuite yet.  On our testsuite the results  
are rather good (less than 5% of
failures) but:
* as there is no support for shared libraries GDB can't call malloc()
* dSYM files should work well but they are not automatically generated
* reading dwarf from .o mostly works provided -fno-common is used...

Tristan.
