I didn't have a chance to continue on this, sorry.
It occured to me that there is a potential train about to hit us,
which is the tree-ssa gcc work. Apparently it is going to produce
really really heavily optimized code, and I am worried abuot how well
gdb will cope for this.
I'd like to add this to the list of gcc's we test. I hope I'll get a
chance to do this soon. There is a public branch that is called
tree-ssa-20020619-branch.
