--- Comment #18 from Martin Sebor <msebor at gcc dot gnu.org> --- GDB already has a C++ parser. It just isn't good enough. It understands that B<unsigned> and B<unsigned int> are one and the same type but it interprets A<2> and A<2u> as distinct. In my view, this is not just a limitation but a bug. But to be clear, my argument isn't so much against changing GCC but rather that the right solution is to fix/enhance GDB. Changing GCC is just a workaround, and it isn't even a very good one given that GCC 7 already emits a different symbol. In any event, you don't need my approval to propose a change to GCC. You need the approval of the C++ debug info maintainer(s).
