One, and one only.  I'm just trying to understand why these separate
projects are hosted alongside GDB.  And why they should continue to be.
I am not being dismissive, or stand-offish about this, I just don't see
why this co-community needs to exist in lock-step with GDB.  As I said
in a previous reply, there are many, many build dependencies required to
build GDB beyond what is stored in the current CVS.

I am just trying to understand the force of history here.

Cheers,

Phil
