I just tried compiling gdb with the sun supplied cc instead of the gcc in the makefile (why didn't I suspect earlier?). The results: It breaks when I hit contol-c and it doesn't on gets or fgets! The version of gcc I am using: 1.34, 68k, MIT syntax, compiled by GNU C version 1.34, with cpp 1.34, and gcc-as, the latest (1.31?). Perhaps this aught to be mentioned to the gcc folks, too. hmmm. interesting. murf

I guess I'll say it "aloud", instead of in many individual letters to many individual people: I would recommend that people *not* compile gdb with gcc. If you do, please see the notes about doing so in the Makefile. This is not due to a bug in gcc, simply due to the large number of sites at which the fixincludes script has not been properley run or has missed something. Again, see the notes in the Makefile. -- Randy
