If possible, that definately sounds like the best idea... GDB will still
need to be enhanced however. If nothing else, printing out and
dereferencing fat pointers is different than normal pointers. I assume
that this enhancement would be more clean than an outright hack (which GDB
doesn't need) to remove the prefix...
