Dear Debian folks,


attaching GDB to `evolution` from package version 3.4.4-2, I see the
following.

        $ gdb evolution

The upstream fix `[patch 2/2] Support gcc-4.7 DW_OP_GNU_parameter_ref`
[1] was also backported to the GDB package gdb-7.4.50.20120120-49.fc17
in Fedora 17 [2] and GDB 7.51 in openSUSE [3].

It would be great if you this patch could be applied to Debian’s GDB
package too so that this gets fixed in Wheezy and people can happily
debug their programs. ;-)


Thanks,

Paul
