Heck, it's worse than that, since 8 of the 12 people listed as global
maintainers in gdb/MAINTAINERS are either Cygnus/Red Hat or ex-Cygnus.
(I don't know how many of those people are actively working on gdb.)
The binutils are much worse--7 out of 8 global maintainers are Cygnus
or ex-Cygnus.

But I would have to agree that it doesn't really matter.
