* Is this the debugger that comes with Code Fusion?

The multithreaded,
no-really-you-might-consider-not-using-DDD-for-this-feature, oh-so-dope
Cygnus in-house product?

Or am I confused?

I like DDD + XEmacs ("Emacs is my OS, Linux is its device driver") but
I'm beginning to think that maybe, just maybe, threads are not the most
evil thing in the world, and the pain of debugging them might be worth
it if I had a good threads-aware gdb to use.

Yes and no.

You should be... :-) But seriously, while Insight is indeed the Code
Fusion debugger GUI, but there are Code Fusion hacks for thread
support that would pollute regular GDB.  It's being worked on though,
and those changes should appear in regular GDB shortly.

Another big difference between what you get on sourceware and what
Code Fusion has is that the Code Fusion version is prebuilt.  As
people on this list can attest, building Insight is a bit of
extra work! :-)

Another difference is that Insight is picking up patches and
improvements that are not going to be available in Code Fusion until
the next version comes out sometime - the wonders of open source...
