Elf/Dwarf OR Elf/Stabs output from vxworks on PPC

I'm trying to workout the details of using vxworks + GNU C with a third
party debugger.   I understand that GCC when operating in C++ mode, will
not generate Elf/Dwarf.  

GCC will do Elf/Stabs for C++, but Stabs is a rather old format, in fact
pre-dating C++ - so there have been a few proprietary kludges to enhance
Stabs.

Can we get GCC to do create 'standard' Elf/Dwarf object files from C++
that we can use with our commercial debugger?

Andy.
