I've signed assignments for GCC and Binutils. I'm happy to sign one for
GDB as well. I haven't worked out quite who wrote our existing ARM GDB
stuff: it was checked in by Todd Vierling, but I think the work was mostly
done by Mark Brinicombe.

Unfortunately, 5.0 is what NetBSD is currently working towards using, so
all my patches are likely to start life there. I'll do what I can to
ensure they're still relevant to the trunk, though.
