I am using GDB self-proclaimed version 2.8, got from wheaties:/gp/gnu/gdb on Oct 12. With a very big executable file (only one that I know of), GDB gets a SEGV while reading the symbol tables. The file is a `temacs', quite large (abnormally so, lots of pure lisp): -rwxr-xr-x 1 mcgrath spur 1632491 Oct 4 17:10 temacs text data bss dec hex 417792 532480 32858 983130 f005a If you want to try to fix this bug, send me mail at roland@wheaties and I'll either give you the executable (it's a 68020 Sun-3 executable, so most GNU people can use it) or tell you how to get onto the machines where all the files are.
