Karl, what do you think about this rewording
The second hunk adds real information, so I'll go ahead and install that.
The first hunk, though, I just can't agree with, and I feel pretty sure
that rms would not approve of such a change either. "Helpless" is a
good description of people faced with crashing executables without
debugging symbols. Empowering everyone on equal terms is part of the
overall GNU philosophy, after all.
I personally would not have written it that way in the first place, but
given that it is there now, I don't want to simply replace it with bland
text, or occupy rms's time with it, either.
Best,
karl
