I did the following: % config.gdb sun3os4 Make sure to compile any program on which you want to run gdb without shared libraries (cc -Bstatic) Linking `param.h' to `m-sun3os4.h'. Linking `pinsn.c' to `m68k-pinsn.c'. Linking `opcode.h' to `m68k-opcode.h'. Linking `dep.c' to `sun3-dep.c'.

We're running standard versions of cc and nm as they come from the Sun distribution. I don't have any ideas on what's going wrong. ---------- Ed Simpson e-mail by ARPANET: evs@cs.duke.edu tel.: (919)660-5107 P.O.Box 3140, Duke Univ. Medical Center, Durham, NC, USA 27710
