"insight" makes most sense as it is a different branch of gdb, published
separately under that name. as far as i know it is backward compatible
to the vanilla GDB, at least is the insight tree also producing a gdb
binary.
i have applied the patches to gdb 6.8. execpt for one small "hunk" they
apply fine and it compiles. however the resulting binary does not work
(target initialization fails) its seems to be related to the change that
gdb now can support multiple targets in one binary.
Is there any pointer anyone could give about this? I'm on 64bits, so I'll
need to sort out either 64bits build or multiarch binaries. I'll
investigate this issue anyway.
the 32 bit binaries would probably run fine when the 32 bit
compatibility libs are installed. however when i do a simple build i
also get 64 bit binaries.
there are patches for 64 bits against 6.7.1 out there. i'm trying one
right now. otherwise somebody would need to update the patches for 6.8
