Using WindRiver Probe JTAG

Hi guys.
I'd like to know if anybody had an experience using Wind River Probe JTAG
with PowerPC architecture in general, and with PowerQuicc iii family in
particular.
We're using WR workbench, but I am not sure whether to use their JTAG or the
popular BDI2000.
Does anybody know if WR Probe uses GDB, or something proprietary to WR?
Can it be attached to gdb/ddd/eclipse, or only to WR workbench IDE?
For kernel debugging with symbolic information - can it use any binary
compiled with -g, or it has to be compiled under WR workbench environment
that has some add-ons (I know, it sounds strange - but I actually heard some
vague saying of this kind from WR representative).

I know those are questions that should be addressed to Wind River , which I
did, but I didn't get clear enough answers - so your (good/bad) field
experience could be very helpful.

Thanks a lot,
Michael
