In 9.x ( can't check -current, but teh mailing list has a better readership)

I'm still seeing this and have still not found any solution:
possible reasons for the change may be:
1/ change to kgdb?
2/ change to the compiling toolset?
3/ change to the .mk files for compiling modules?

any guidance would be appreciated..
The reason I can get away with using FreeBSD ar work is because I can debug modules well as in Linux this is generally a problem.. Now I see similar breakage in freebsd. (sigh)).

I really don't know where to start looking for this..

so We upgraded our development machines from 8 stable to 9 stable. and now kgdb can't debug inside modules.

instead of getting anything useful, we just get:

but stopping in the kernel itself, we DO see stuff..

etc.

it looks as if modules no longer have stack frames compiled in.
does anyone know the culprit?
