Details

We have pretty printers for gecko types in the tree at python/gdbpp/gdbpp. These should be automatically loaded when using gdb as a debugger from mach.
There are .gdbinit and .gdbinit_python files placed in dist/bin during the build that ensures this happens. But maybe you're on mac?
Ah hah. So we do. I was just talking to someone about this on IRC and they said we didn't do that yet, so I just reflexively filed the bug without checking first.
