Description:   Opened: 2004-05-01 01:33 0000 
Found a bug in gdb.. In certains conditions (always on my system), gdb
segfaults. The fix should already be in the gdb cvs. And I've added it to
insight.

Don't spose you could elaborate on when the bug rears its head?  I've been
experiencing pretty much continual gdb segfaults (figure after about 3-4
segfaults of the prog being debugged, gdb itself segfaults).  Would be curious
under what conditions this occurs.

------- Comment #3 From Olivier Crete 2004-06-17 15:29:22 0000 ------- 
this bug occurs when trying to load separate debug information.. Especially
when the program was "not" compiled with -g... so the debug info file is almost
empty (it might only contain symbols, but no line numbers, etc).. And gdb used
the wrong count to allocate a structure (which worked when the struct for the
debug file was bigger than the original, but not the other way around)... or
something like that..
