>Description:
gdb could provide better support for the "long long" data type
and allow output in bases other than hexadecimal.  The current version
of gdb requires that "long long's" be output using "%ll" rather than
FreeBSD's "%q".

It's a fairly simple change to extend gdb's, support.  One would 
need to create a macro to abstract the "long long" format, and replace
it.

If I find timeto figure out how to package the diffs, 
I'll try to add them to this PR.
