As a duly appointed employee of Apple, Inc. (All Praise the One-button Mouse), I hereby foist unto the FSF this steaming pile o' modifications to gdb, to share and enjoy, in sickness and in health, til bitrot do you part. Thanks! I'll figure out how to get it into the tree on some sort of branch. Why is this useful (beside using this warm steaming pile o' for central heating)? It clearly transfers the code to the FSF so that anyone, not just Apple employees, can confidently steal the interesting bits so that GDB can be made to work.
