Ah, yes, I remember this now. You're going to have to keep pinging the GDB 
folks at gdb@sources.redhat.com. There are far more people there that can 
help you with this than there are here. (In case there's any doubt, this 
mailing list is essentially just me, with a tiny smattering of input 
from others.) The GDB list has dozens of active contributors/developers.

Have you tried 5.3 or CVS head?
