Right.

I don't really know, I never upgraded beyond GCC 3.4 and GDB 6.8,
because these two can still be used to debug executables with COFF
debug info.  (I need COFF for Emacs.)

Juan probably knows much more, as he built every version of GDB until
now, and it's from him that I know that COFF debugging is unusable
with latest versions of GCC and GDB.
