 I had been working on a patch in my local fork of the gdb-apple tree, and
 I have not been able to fix it to get the MacsBug plugin to build from
 within it... It seems to be expecting all of the gdb components (bfd,
 binutils, opcodes, gdb itself, and so on) to be installed as Frameworks in
 the System folder, which I am pretty sure MacPorts is not allowed to
 touch... also the Makefile keeps referring to using this tool called
 "buildit" to build the plugin, and the only software called "buildit" that
 I was able to find online did not seem to be the same thing, so I am
 assuming that "buildit" must be some sort of Apple Internal tool that I do
 not have access to... anyways I will keep this on my todo list, but
 probably will not be coming up with a patch any time soon...
