Well, you were asking for a workaround, I suppose that not using VLA is it. It's also probably pretty easy to fix (and we'd need the DWARF fix too for when GCC is the primary compiler). As I mentioned to Rich Lowe, I don't remember the vla syntax used by SS11 being in the stabs spec, so we'd need to ask one of the compiler people where the syntax came from and what its spec is. Note that we just need to do a simple parsing of the stab as we throw it away; it's not something that ends up being used in the resultant CTF. regards john
