Hmm, sometimes I just make things more muddy when trying to
clear them up - I meant it will replace *and* it will save. :-)

No rocket science, it just does a "cp" of those two files in
the preinstall script of the GDB-D package. I modified the
package to also save them on upgrade now, like if you upgrade
Xcode from 2.4 to 2.4.1 or so - tacked the date on the copies.

But it's more of a "just in case", as far as I know the GDB
debugger still works OK for C with the patch for D included.
