Has anyone checked out this older message from the mailing list?

Re: Questions about GCC MIPS R5900's mdebug section
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb/1999-q4/msg00290.html

I indeed have no .mdebug section, and I indeed see an unsuccessful
search for "__GDB_EFI_INFO__". I do have a .pdr section. On the
surface this would seem to be my problem.
Should this sym lookup be prefaced with a check for a .mdebug
section?

Also, from scanning the sources, I would have to guess that the
alpha architecture is suffering the same problem.
