Has anyone ( else ) out there had problems using dbx under Ultrix 1.2. 
We have had a number of problems including getting into a state where it
is not able to access local variables of a paticular function, and not
being able to handle C casts of a pointer to an array of pointers. 
Other annoyances are that it can't print the results of a function, and
in 'print', expressions cannot include a function call. 

We would be interested in any similar problem reports and/or
fixes/work-arounds.  Also, the documentation which we have has been
wrong on a couple of occaisions, so if anyone knows to any
features/changes/corrections to it, we would appreciate hearing about
it. 

DEC has been most uncooperative in fixing these problems.
