It would be awesome if GDB could display this information when
debugging a process, *and* when looking at a core file.
Actually, GDB has some Guile support (‘set language scheme’), although
it works only with 1.6 and partly with 1.8 (because tags

It's a shame that GCC has not been able to support LLVM's level of
innovation,
I don’t think innovation is the problem (did you read the 4.5 release
notes?). However, it’s been too much of a monolithic compiler, unlike
LLVM, although plug-ins will now
Good stuff, Andy!

One option I am really starting to like is LLVM. I know what you're
thinking, huge memory consumption, giant dependency, etc, but it's so
cool! It supports every desktop architecture too.
Howdy!

Adding an extra work to programs seems like a good
