Perhaps, for portability, could .gdbinit do something like
globally:
 set $argc = -1
and then the pp functions could test if $argc >= 0 to 
recognize GDB 6.4 ?

Seems useful, but why have to functions which does the same thing?

Actually, it would alse be useful if you could enhance
xbacktrace to recognize when the current frame is Ffuncall and
print the args at that level  (maybe for other functions too).
