In my case, the binaries aren't stripped. I had checked on that. But I did get an answer from the Sun Studio project: the problem I've been seeing (which might not be the same problem that Steve reports, but could be) appears to be a known bug (6823053). I don't know the prospects for a fix, but there's a workaround, which is to modify the compiler flags to change this: -xdebugformat=stabs to this: -xdebugformat=dwarf Also make sure the compiler is called with -g. This worked for me. But I have no idea what other effects this change may have, so use at your own risk. Lori
