Following that link, I think I now better appreciate why full C++
support in GDB is basically impossible: in order to decide which 'fun'
template the call in 'main' refers to, one must try to instantiate
each template and type-check the resulting code.  So GDB would need to
essentially incorporate a full C++ front end.
