And I would had that debian has a mechanisme called alternatives to handle a
case like this. It would allows to install both original gdb and insight or
only one of them without conflict and allow you to choose which one is
really launched by the gdb 
command.
(Does the debian insight package use alterntives?)

This, in the end seems to be a matter of distribution.
I don't know if there is such a mechanisme with RPMs, its quite an
fundamental feature for Debian...
