Delete it :-)  As Michael observed, if the code is written correctly it 
works from day one.  (Problem is it has taken ~10 years to figure out 
how to correctly write the code :-)

Oh, if you think that is neat, just wait until someone adds byte-order 
information to ``struct type''.  As it is, gdb knows about the byte 
order of certain floating-point types. :-)

enjoy,
Andrew
