[gnu.g++.bug] Problem with <stream.h> and gdb+

schmidt%beaver.ics.uci.edu@ORION.CF.UCI.EDU ("Douglas C. Schmidt") (10/16/88)

Hi,

  I'm getting a strange problem with g++ 1.27 on Sun 3's in conjunction
with gdb+ 2.8.0.  Whenever I use the stream operator ``cout'' to output
information the debugger can't seem to deal with it.  When I use
printf there is no problem.  Here's a transcript of the problems.

Incidentally, this works fine on the Sun 4's.

Any hints?
