Gdb built recently from the CVS causes a segmentation fault due to stack growth: 343 (hiauly1)dave> ./gdb /usr/local/bin/ls GNU gdb 20000204 Copyright 1998 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

(no debugging symbols found) Pid 29798 received a SIGSEGV for stack growth failure. Possible causes: insufficient memory or swap space, or stack size exceeded maxssiz. Memory fault The problem appears to be caused by init.c calling initialize_hpux_thread () twice: 346 (hiauly1)dave> grep _initialize_hpux_thread init.c extern initialize_file_ftype _initialize_hpux_thread; extern initialize_file_ftype _initialize_hpux_thread; _initialize_hpux_thread (); _initialize_hpux_thread (); This occurs because the Makefile generated by configure defines CONFIG_OBS= hpux-thread.o CONFIG_SRCS= hpux-thread.c CONFIG_DEPS= CONFIG_INITS= hpux-thread.c Both CONFIG_OBS and CONFIG_INITS are included in the INIT_FILES list in the Makefile. Removing hpux-thread.c from CONFIG_INITS fixes the problem. -- J. David Anglin [EMAIL PROTECTED] National Research Council of Canada (613) 990-0752 (FAX: 952-6605)
