[fpc-devel] libgdb: preferred version and whence?

I find that the libgdb sources I've been using- 6.3 if I'm interpreting 
the name of the tarball correctly- don't compile for ARM Linux. 
Referring to gdbint.pp I believe the most recent supported version is 
6.7: where can I find the sources?

I notice that Debian is at long last bundling libgdb-dev in Lenny and 
Sid, but that it's 6.8 which is not explicitly supported by gdbint.pp.

Referring again to gdbint.pp I see this:

{ 6.5.x }
{$ifdef GDB_V605}
{$endif def GDB_V605}

{ 6.6.x }
{$ifdef GDB_V606}
{$endif def GDB_V605}

{ 6.7.x }
{$ifdef GDB_V607}
{$endif def GDB_V605}

Am I correct in assuming that the text after the $endif is purely 
documentary, or is it used somewhere in the build process?
