STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION while inputing symbol-file


I have 6 applications that I am trying to debug with gdb.  5 of them I have
successfully loaded, run, and debugged.  But the last one I am working with
kills gdb when I try to input symbol-file; see below:

(ppc-gdb)load webservd.elf
Loading section .vectors, size 0x1f34 lma 0x0
Loading section .text, size 0x20378 lma 0x3000
Loading section .rodata, size 0x6b4 lma 0x23380
Loading section .sdata2, size 0x4 lma 0x23a34
Loading section .data, size 0x1d7c lma 0x23a38
Loading section .got2, size 0x18 lma 0x257b4
Loading section .sdata, size 0x50 lma 0x257cc
Start address 0x100 , load size 149320
Transfer rate: 108596 bits/sec, 504 bytes/write.
(ppc-gdb)symbol-file webservd.elf
Reading symbols from webservd.elf...
0 [main] powerpc-elf-gdb 1216 handle_exceptions: Exception:
STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION
1687 [main] powerpc-elf-gdb 1216 open_stackdumpfile: Dumping stack trace to
powerpc-elf-gdb.exe.stackdump

I have made changes to gdb and recompiled it...so I thought maybe I "broke"
it.  So I went back to the original version and got the same results.

I am running GDB 5.0 in cygwin on Win2k with the OCD patches.  My elf file
was created with gcc 2.95.2.

If anyone has come across this problem before and fixed it I would be
grateful for some insight.

Thanks in advance.
