/* Don't do this; it means that if some .o's are compiled with GNU C
and some are not (easy to do accidentally the way we configure
things; also it is a pain to have to "make clean" every time you
want to switch compilers), then GDB dies a horrible death. */
/* GNU C supports enums that are bitfields. Some compilers don't. */
#if 0 && defined(__GNUC__) && !defined(BYTE_BITFIELD)
#define BYTE_BITFIELD :8;
the `horrible death' excuse isn't relevant. should just enable it and see what the damage is.
(this is probably a duplicate of an earlier PR).
