From personal experience here, I disagree.  We use gdb-4.17 all the
time on Solaris and it works well enough.  gdb-4.17 on Linux is also ok.
gdb-4.18 is much worse (at least for our particular style of usage).
Your mileage may vary.

I just checked out the latest sources of gdb from CVS.  It doesn't build
under 4.0-19990604-CURRENT, has problems compiling gdb/solib.c
