Synopsis: gdb(1): GDB in base of both FreeBSD 6 and 5 is ancient

Responsible-Changed-From-To: emaste->freebsd-bugs
Responsible-Changed-By: emaste
Responsible-Changed-When: Thu Oct 20 01:39:13 UTC 2011
Responsible-Changed-Why: 
Unassign; I have no current plans to bring in a newer gdb.  However
there is a later GPLv2 version available - 6.6.  If it's a very small
effort it is worth bringing it in, but it's looking like lldb is
becoming the viable path forward.
