OSX is not an easy OS for debuggers, and I am not surprised that people
might have some issues with it. But, FWIW, I confirm GDB works pretty
well for us. And we also tested it on the latest OSX release, and for
the first time ever, nothing appears to have regressed.
Not sure what people's issues are on OS, and I won't hijack this thread
to discuss this.
