            Bug ID: 213764
           Summary: System gdb produces an error when attaching to files
                    built with -g

           Version: 10.3-RELEASE
          Hardware: i386

I built vi from /usr/src/usr.bin/vi with CFLAGS=-g for debugging purposes.

When attaching the gdb included with the system to a vi-process, however, I get
the following error:
