There's a port for gdb-4.17 sitting on my ftp site at: ftp://ftp.pcnet.com/users/eischen/FreeBSD/gdb-4.17-port.tar.gz The port includes changes made to the gdb in our base system (then, Mar 1999, it was gdb-4.15 I believe). I haven't made any further updates to it since. You're welcome to play around with it.
