I'm pretty sure that a patch for this was approved on mainline
in November:
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb-patches/2001-11/msg00231.html
You're not going to be able to use 5.1-branch with the output of GCC mainline
unless this is moved to the branch.
The branch is open again, right, Andrew? If so, this would be a good
candidate.
