I've now patch ready (based on apple-local-200502-branch) but it requires few bug fixes in darwin GDB. My simple question is : Is anybody interested in reviewing this GCC patch for acceptance in FSF GCC (4.1 or 4.2 or whenever) irrespective of whether associated GDB changes are contributed or not? Apple linker is updated to avoid 't' and 'T' LSYM stabs while removing chunks of stabs. I am not sure how big deal it is for FSF linker. And I do not know whether these linker changes will find its way in FSF linker or not.
Hi Devang,
I'll review such a patch.
Obviously you can't commit a patch which will break GDB for those who use stabs. However, what you can do is add the changes conditional on a command-line option.
In addition, it would be good if you could:
- Report a bug against FSF GDB for the cases which aren't handled properly
- maybe even provide the patch against Apple GDB which fixed it, since
it might help anyone who looks at the bug.
