More generally, I wish gdb had documentation about which compilers,
assemblers, and linkers that gdb supports, especially for C++.
Personally, I take the view that I prefer to test-bed gdb with other
Free Software. Specifically that means these licenses:
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html#GPLCompatibleLicenses
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html#GPLIncompatibleLicenses
I don't know what FSF policy is on this.
