I was just noticing the announcement about the latest version of gdb 
being avilable, and it made me wonder howcome, when gdb is customized for 
so many differenct environments, how come they don't include stuff so 
that it would work out of the box on FreeBSD?

I'm not suggesting an immediate port, I know that sometimes these things 
need testing.  Like the reason we don't run gcc 2.7.0, so I wouldn't 
suggest that.  It's just that I was wanting to bring up a tk (not tcl, 
just tk) interface to gdb, but I can't, because it is tightly integrated 
into the gdb build, and gdb won't build for us.  Couldn't someone who 
knows the reasons why, communicate them to Cygnus, and get us on their 
list of supported systems?
