Here is what I want to do about gdb DWARF-1 C++ support:

  make a policy decision whether gdb supports DWARF-1 with C++

  if yes:
    remove all the setup_xfail_format DWARF-1 calls
    add regular DWARF-1 testing
    file about 50 new PR's for all the new FAIL's
    file PR's against gcc for the external bugs (and they will hate us)

  if no:
    document that gdb supports C++ with DWARF-2 or stabs+ but not DWARF-1
    add a DWARF-1 check to "skip_cplus_tests"
    remove all the setup_xfail_format DWARF-1 calls
