 Neither fsf-gdb nor fsf-gdbtui work for debugging C++ programs. They're
 finding errors where no errors are, it's even not possible to try out
 because it's not possible to debug until the main() entry (with gdb
 command "start").

 In contrast, MacPorts' cgdb works, as well as Apple's gdb (both don't work
 very well because of the too old release of GNU's gdb they're made of).
