>It does not provide any public or stable interface.  Why does fp-ide use it? 

FPC uses it since 1999 to embed the debugger. It did so even when releases
(since at least 4.16) didn't support it using external makefiles. (probably
from 5-trunk at the time)

The interface does break occasionally (every major version) but on relative
mild points.  

IMHO it is a pity that this is not a formal interface. Specially on non-unix
it makes living with GDB easier.

>How can it be used without GDB's internal headers?

Simple. FPC doesn't use any C headers since it is not a C compiler. It
maintains own (pascal) headers.
