Debugging 64-bt programs using gdb on Fedora Core 4 on G5 PPC

This is more of a usage issue, when installing FC4 on a 64bit capable
system the appropriate tools i.e. gdb.ppc64 should be installed.  The
gdb.ppc64 available from the development branch works fine.

Thank You,
Daniel Shay

File a bug against gcc/powerpc if this is a problem
