debugging C++ code with templates and STL with gdb

Question

What do gdb users here think about its capabilities in regards to debugging code with templates and STL?

Do you use any tricks to make the debugging any simpler? Perhaps some Python scripts? Or are you satisfied the way it is at present in gdb (ver 6.x, haven't tried 7.x yet)?

Thanks.
