No, not something especially wrong (at least as I suspect that if you try to 
use gdb that's because your program fails...); thus GDB says you that your 
program generates a Segmentation fault in function command_interpret, file 
rcrv.c, line 107.

All the "[failed reading symbols from DLL]" can be safely ignored; they simply 
says that DLL are compiled without debugging information... (note to GDB 
developpers/porters: probably gdb could detect this is not an error, and not 
display these annoying messages...)
