If you installed operating system X, including the vendor compiler, and typed `cc -g ..` would the debug format be dwarf-1?

Of those, how many do we still support.
At least 3 I know of: SCO, UnixWare ans Solaris x86. DG-UX may as well,
but I cant swear to its native debugging format. I wish I could say
I will have the energy and time to maintain this in gdb but I just
cant say that. Id be far more interested in getting it doing correct
stack traces in 6.1 on SCO than in supporting DWARF1.


This confuses me a bit - what debugging format would you use
if Dwarf 1 were no longer available?
