Would you please share instructions on how to build Insight against
GDB-7.x?

We are using it in fashion of ICE debugging with QEMU and gdb-6.8 seem
to have debug issues with recent toolchains. I would appreciate a new
release.

The other 2 options to Insight that we have seen are DDD and Eclipse. I
think neither are good replacements. Insight is just very fast and
easier to use than both.

We don't use cygwin at all. Plain debugging of a remote QEMU ARM target
in linux.
