Does anyone know what xgdb is like?  where can I get the source

Thanks,

It's a first cut at a free window-smart debugger, based on gdb (the
GNU DeBugger) and X11R1.  There are some patches floating around to
bring the current version up to X11R2, but the next release will
probably come ready for R2 out of the box.

It comes with gdb, which is only distributed with GNU Emacs.  Get GNU
Emacs from prep.ai.mit.edu:/u/emacs/edist.tar-18.51.Z.

I compiled xgdb (Sun 3/50, SunOS 4.0, X.V11R3, purdue, purdue+, csri)
with gcc -traditional (gcc 1.30), when I tried to run I get this error.
Can anyone help me here?
