Hi Joel.
I finally had a bit of time to look into this again. I concluded
that the DOF data is invalid, or follows a format that's different
from the one that GDB expected, and so added some code to detect
and ignore... Attached is the patch with full explanation. Does it
make sense to you?
Yes, definitely, thanks for the fix!
I will pass this information to the DTrace hackers. It would be nice to
figure out why such an inconsistent DOF data is being generated in
solarix-x86.
