Re: RFA: GCC stabs don't contain prototype info

Yes, there's the encoding developed by Sun, described in the GNU stabs
manual. It looks to me like GDB is ready to consume this info, so
getting GCC to emit it would be great.
Until that's done, however, this test should XFAIL, so other engineers
won't waste their time re-analyzing the failure. (I don't mean to
imply that you disagree; I just want to make things clear to the test
suite maintainers.)
