Is gdb available on an Encore, running Mach? (I see the port to Encore/UMAX) - what fix do I need to get it run on Mach, if at all possible. Any help appreciated. Thanks, Rohit (rohit@mojave.stanford.edu)

We have it installed now on our mmaxen at CMU, I did the fixes to gdb 3.5 for all our supported architectures. There were two problems specific to the encore: alloca() is broken ( you must use gdb's one), and some difference of opinion about coff symtables between encore and the gnu guys ;-). I have posted the latter fix to this list. There are plans to integrate Mach support into gdb 4.0, for now you'll have to get it from CMU. I do believe at Encore they had it working internally, but I do not know if they distribute it. If there is interest I'll set up an ftp-able place, let me know. sandro-

I would be interested in the changes needed to get GDB running on our max, under BSD4.3, if possible. Randy -- Randy J.
