Works for me.Doesn't look like its going to happen. There are too many patches needed for gcc-3.4 that most likely won't make it into sarge and several of us want to release a unofficial sarge with a minimum of extra patches compared to the official one.
Sorry, but I am sure that Sarge for amd64 will require more patches when using gcc-3.3 instead of 3.4.1. Anyway, I'm just interested in Sid. Probably there were some good reasons to drop gdb 6.1 for amd64(gcc-3.4), but all the included *-dbg libraries are pretty useless without a working debugger. Not to mention that debugging is important esp. on amd64 and Unstable. 2 weeks ago gdb 6.2 was released. It builds without problems for amd64(gcc-3,4). Would it be possible to get this debugger in?
