Hello Murad,
There are two snapshots available:
ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/gdb/snapshots/branch/gdb-5.2.91.tar.bz2
ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/gdb/snapshots/current/insight+dejagnu-weekly-CVS-20021206.tar.bz2
The first snapshot is from the 5.3 branch and will become gdb 5.3 soon
if everything goes well. I am regression testing this right now versus
5.2.1 and there are no big obvious problems yet.
The second snapshot is from the CVS head. It's more likely to have the
bug fix that Daniel J is referring to. It's also possible that it has
build problems because the configuration+build machinery is in active
development right now. If it builds, though, it is also in good shape
for gcc v3 dwarf-2 debugging.
You are on the right track with gcc 3.2.1 and -gdwarf-2.
I recommend you try the "branch" snapshot first; it is much more stable.
If it is not featureful enough (does not fix your problems) then try
the "current" snapshot.
Hope this helps,
Michael C
P. S. I see you are at columbia.edu. I am on Staten Island. Isn't
the city beautiful with today's snow?
