I would have talked about compiler generated information. I have a 
compiler that generates debug information so that gdb prints this class 
as a class, and not a struct!
The target is not a native one but an internal ST one, but I guess that 
there are other targeted gdbs that behave the same, and this behavior is 
correct to me! My patch was just to let some gdbs avoid an error in the 
testsuite that is not a real error, unless there is a consensus that 
tells simple class must be represented as structures.

Sorry, I don't see it, I re-attach my patch as a real attachment, may be 
my mailer did something wrong
