Hmm.  I might do that, too.  From what I can tell, though, the
latest version of the Debian gdb package isn't available for
PowerPC, patches or no patches -- I have a version with your
patches installed, but when I try to get apt to reinstall it (with
`apt-get install --reinstall gdb'), apt tells me ``Sorry,
re-installation of gdb is not possible, it cannot be downloaded''.

   C.
