Try cloning https://github.com/monnerat/insight: it is unofficial, but
up to date with binutils-gdb, tcl, tk, itcl, itk and iwidgets. I'm the
Fedora package maintainer and I've tried to keep it alive there until
now.

FreeBSD-users, or is it hopelessly incompatible with gdb-7 and nobody
has funding/energy/time to bring it up to date?
I've been told it is, but I noted it does not breathe much :-(

Patrick
