You may want to think about the reality of software development a
little. They have the only port of GDB to Mac OS X; anyone else could
have done one, but no one did. They seem to want to contribute it
back, too. They just never have time. This is partly because of
the immense schedule pressure at Apple. It's also partly because of
how much work it is to contribute to GDB.
