Homebrew formula of GDB with patch for OS X Yosemite

A build of GDB using a brewed Python was requested, but Python is not
a universal build.
GDB requires Python to be built as a universal binary or it will fail
if attempting to debug a 32-bit binary on a 64-bit host.

You will need to codesign the binary. For instructions, see:

Great! Thx man!

And most people may need to create a code sign for gdb to make it work properly on OS X 10.10. Here's the instruction:

Thank you so much! Spent a lot of time struggling with the OSO warning on gdb7.10

This is really the only way out, if anyone do not want to manually configure a compilation and installation. Great thank for eliminating the OSO/coreTLS warning!
