Summary:                    gdb 6.3 does not build on arm
Description: 
GDB 6.3 does not currently build on ARM with compiler gcc 3.4.2
due to casting problems in iwmmx.c. 6.2.1 builds fine.

Possibly do not offer 6.3 as default on ARM?

not a good idea, it builds w/ gcc-3.4.4

Sorry, mis-read the compilation, and realised that it
was a problem with the host machine's last debian
upgrade taking the host compiler to 4.0.1, which was
causing gdb 6.3 to fail when building the local client.
