Good luck with gdb :-) Thanks for the good words, Christos! If you can confirm this will be the official patch then we can apply it to our vendor sources. If there are any other fixes for nasty bugs in 6.15.00 that you're hanging on to it'd be good to get those out and imported as well. We'll keep banging on the gdb issue. -- Doug White | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve dwhite@gumbysoft.com | www.FreeBSD.org
