I see the same behavior with gdb-6.5.tar.gz built from source retrieved from ftp.gnu.org. In addition, the gdb that I've reporting the problem against is the gdb in the *base system*. Having a working debugger in -current base system would seem to be an essential tool. In fact, gdb appears to work fine with /bin/sh. So, *the problem* is the new tcsh code. The recent tcsh import needs to be reverted. -- Steve http://troutmask.apl.washington.edu/~kargl/
