Doing the same here leads to GDB complaining about:

        .gdbinit:1040: Error in sourced command file:
        No symbol "gdb_gctypebits" in current context.
        
        .gdbinit:1083: Error in sourced command file:
        No symbol "gdb_use_union" in current context.

The latter line number is bigger because of my inclusions. The  
"original" line number is 1069. The GDB session 'runs' like this:

(In two weeks, at the end of this month, I could try to download  
almost 1 GB Apple developer packages with maybe a new version of GDB.  
I'd like to wait because I have no flat-rate but only some volume to  
up- or download.)

To most people solutions mean finding the answers. But to chemists  
solutions
are things that are still all mixed up.
