WHY?
I just gave you an argument why that information doesn't do you
any particular good, NO MATTER WHAT THE ABI IS. Please refute
it rather than ignoring it.
Moreover, the algorithm I suggested that you use -- assume saved --
is also completely independant of the ABI, so its' not like GDB
needs to hard code ABI specific information either.
