I don't see that as such a big deal. We have patches in gdb for all
kinds of system- and compiler-specific behavior. At least in this case
the patches in question are public and free software.
I do agree that we should make another attempt to get the probes
upstream; I just don't think success at that should be a precondition
for this patch.
FWIW, we already have support for the glibc longjmp probes in the tree
now.
