Apple doesn't push up all its changes, I think because they think/know they wouldn't all be accepted.<BR>
But granted, actually just supporting a target, should be acceptable.<BR>
Problems may be more like language changes for Mac source compat, though I'd think with flags to turn them off/on, they'd be ok, but that's another point.<BR>
<BR>
The lag does seem severe here though.<BR>
I guess wait for the gdb 7.0 release and then reevaluate?<BR>
In the meantime, no m3gdb for I386_DARWIN, AMD64_DARWIN.<BR>
I haven't tried PPC_DARWIN yet.<BR>
<BR>
I agree the forking is unfortunate.<BR>
Even if it is temporary, it seems to go too long.<BR>
