I have tried this method on wiki about GCC debugging.  I am not sure about 
that and mail the procedure here to verify it,  maybe someone of you could 
clarify for me.  Thanks in advance.

Here goes the my procedure on GCC debugging.
1 Generate preprocessed source code wiht option -E and redirect to a file 
named a.c.expand.
2  Debug cc1 by GDB with the arguments "-c a.c.expand" to cc1

Is this a reasonable procedure to debug GCC?

Any suggestion and comments are highly appreciated!
