I'm not sure why you'd want to use gdb in this fashion since it can't
currently use symbol information from VC++ programs.

Also, I *really* don't want to have discussions in cygwin-developers
that are cross-pollinated from cygwin so I've removed
cygwin AT sourceware DOT cygnus DOT com from the To:.
