-g and -ggdb

[Mark Mitchell]

Why doesn't -g generate DWARF2 output on Linux?  I'd think that -g
should be synonymous with -ggdb on systems (like Linux) where the
usual debugger is gdb, but this does not seem to be so.  The
documentation for -g produces debugging information in the operating
system's "native format".  Any thoughts?  I'd be happy to fix this, if
we have consensus on what to do.  My proposal:

  o Make the "native format" on Linux whatever -ggdb generates.
