PathScale is slowly open sourcing and porting some of our core software 
technology and thought the BSD community might be interested in PathDB.  
Months ago we gave a few FBSD developers private access to the source, 
but never received any feedback.  Now we're asking more people to please 
test and tell us what you think.

Source
git clone git://git.pathscale.com/path64/debugger.git
Note : We have a small patch which makes it build with gcc-4.3+ that 
should be pushed soon.

License (GPLv3, *BUT* if we get a lot of positive feedback from the BSD 
community we can change this any time - see below)

Benefits
    * Very well designed
    * Robust and well tested
    * Similar interface as GDB
    * Commercially supported
    * Recently revived roadmap (We're evaluating things like gpu 
support, reverse debugging, latest dwarf standards, tight integration 
with compiler for optimized debugging.. etc)

Promise - Give us a hand in testing and improving and we'll relicense to 
a more permissive license.

Questions/comments - Say hi on #pathscale - irc.freenode.net or email me 
directly


Thanks

Christopher
