The latest version of gdb only understands version 2 symsegs.  This is
a real pain, since GNU CC 1.33 doesn't output version 2 symsegs.  It
still outputs version 1 symsegs.  The GNU debugging format is really
nice...it does make debugging easier, and faster.  Unfortunately, the
developers of code A didn't talk to the developers of code B and we're
stuck with the results.  Thanks.
