>Description:
This is a new port for an Ada-aware debugger based on gdb-4.17.

Note to committer:

  o The port now depends on the GNAT source tarball due to an
    enclosed patch file for GDB-4.17.  I don't like having to depend
    on having to fetch this large file to obtain the patch file, but
    it caused complaints when trying to include it in the port.  If
    there are other ways to handle this, perhaps they can be pointed
    out.

  o The FreeBSD specific patches to gdb-4.17 are contained in patch
    files patch-aa - patch-be.  Ideally, if and when there is a port
    for gdb-4.17, we could perhaps use those patch files (which would
    be identical) instead of keeping a copy of them in this port also.
    Patches specific to the Ada-aware gdb-4.17 are contained in
    patch-ca and patch-cb (to possibly allow for more FreeBSD specific
    patches to gdb-4.17).

  o Building with EXPOSE_FATAL_GCC_ERROR defined, exposes a fatal
    bug in GCC (both the base gcc, and gcc-28 from ports).  This
    was meant to easily allow the bug to be reproduced.

The port is rather large, so I placed it up for ftp instead of
spamming the mailing lists.  Fetch it from:
