Alas, digging into gdb's code is not my idea of fun. But, working on  
a nice Mac-native app appeals to me much more :-)

Given that I'm writing a debugger from the ground-up, I'd think I can  
put AVR-ness into the AVR target plugin. In that case, I'd like to  
know if I should learn and support DWARF-2 or STABS. Is one better  
than the other? Faster to load/query, etc?
