I haven't managed language dev at a big corporation, but I _have_ 
managed a lot of SW dev in general.  Full GDB support for 
built-in language types is a pretty good example of the sort of 
task I would "share the pain" across all of my devs.  A decent 
manager in a professional environment is going to make sure the 
less glamorous--but still necessary--tasks get addressed.
