gdb + PAE may not get much testing, but PAE kernels themselves certainly
are mainstream. Fedora Core 5 recently started providing PAE kernels in
addition to non-POAE ones, and Fedora Core 6 / RHEL5 will only support PAE
on i386, so there's plenty of use there. Prety sure SLES also uses PAE
kernels.
