gcc/config/elfos.h says:

    /* The GNU tools operate better with stabs.  Since we don't have
       any native tools to be compatible with, default to stabs.  */
    
    #ifndef PREFERRED_DEBUGGING_TYPE
    #define PREFERRED_DEBUGGING_TYPE DBX_DEBUG
    #endif


Doesn't GNU [ELF] tools operate better with DWARF2_DEBUG now days?
