I don't know of any other options on Linux.

What problems are you seeing?
Also, have you tried the current development sources? See
http://sources.redhat.com/gdb/#download

It is being worked on, off and on. It really helps when we (the
GDB team) have relatively small test cases to look at.
BTW, this discussion probably ought to be moved to
gdb@sources.redhat.com. I'm willing to continue discussing it here if
you want, but you'll get the attention of other GDB developers if you
ask your question on one of the GDB mailing lists. (The Linux threads
maintainer for GDB is usually pretty responsive if you supply him with
specific test cases.)
