Yip.  The work hasn't been done for it.  I, personally, only use core files
with adb (to find out *where* it died, and then use gdb to go through it),
so haven't had a good enough reason to implement the support.  I've been
told it shouldn't be too hard, though, and I'll probably do it one of these
days.

Beats me.  It works with gcc-1.9x and gdb 4.3.2.
