Status of Ada support in GDB

Hi,

What's the status of the Ada support in the current
GDB?

I compiled GDB 5.3 from sources on a RedHat 8.0 i686
machine (with gcc and gnat 3.2), but I'm not getting
very far. Apparently GDB does not understand Ada?

For example, I tried setting a breakpoint but got
"internal error - unimplemented function 
 unk_lang_create_fundamental_type called."

I then found a patch to gdb/language.c in this list
which changes the unk_lang_create_fundamental_type
to c_create_fundamental_type, but still the Ada
syntax is not recognized.

Thanks,

Oliver M. Kellogg
