In fact I'd be interested to hear how gdb has dealt with this problem in
the past. I'm also sure this won't be the last time we're in this
situation.
In general, I'm not reluctant to make folks use an older GDB with an
older compiler. Users who get a prebuilt toolchain from Xilinx -
probably the majority - won't be affected by the switch.
It may be possible to make this change as part of Xilinx's
next toolchain release. I'll discuss this with them. But I
would be reluctant to break backward compatibility unless
there was a more compelling reason.
