    Does anyone else use "cdb", HPs `debugger', on the HP9000/300?
    This is the somewhat symbolic-level debugger provided in lieu of
    the (superior) dbx or sdb.

    I'm wondering (among other things) why a stack trace (`t' command)
    shows that all functions other than those declared within the program
    being debugged take 5 paramaters.  I have routines I've written and
    made into a library being shown as having 5 paramaters, when I know
    they have less than that.  Is this a bug or a feature?
