In earlier versions of GDB the effects were rather -limited, but starting with GDB 5.3 the influence is much more -prominent. As a workaround, compile your code with -gdwarf-2. - - -hppa2.0-hp-hpux10.20 --------------------- - -gdb/487: The top level make files used to build GDB are not compatible -with HP/UX make. As a workaround, use GNU make. - -gdb/486: The HP/UX C compiler defaults to K&R mode but GDB only builds -with an ISO C compiler. The top level configuration incorrectly sets -CC to `cc' instead of `cc -Ae'. As a workaround, the correct compiler -can be specified as part of the configuration vis: - - $ 'CC=cc -Ae' ./configure - - -s390*-*-* ---------- - -gdb/513: GDB does not build on s390 GNU/Linux. The problem should be -fixed in more recent sources. - - -i386-*-freebsd4.4* ------------------- - -gdb/455: GDB doesn't build on a FreeBSD 4.4-STABLE system. The -problem is still being investigated. - -alpha*-*-osf* -------------- - -gdb/816: When building GDB with GCC 3.0.1, GDB is unable to load a core -file properly. It generates several errors and warnings regarding -unhandled core file section types, incorrect endianness, the failure to -load the registers. Are also incorrectly reported: The program name, the -cause of the program death, and the call stack at the moment of the -death. This problem has been reported on alpha-osf4.0f and alpha-osf5.1a. -To work-around the problem, add -D__digital__ to the CFLAGS when -building GDB vis: - - $ make CFLAGS='-O2 -D__digital__' - - -i[3456]86-*-linux* ------------------- - -gdb/660: gdb does not build with GNU/Linux libc5. The symptom is a -parse error before `uintptr_t' or an error message about `uintptr_t'. -Upgrade to glibc 2.1.3 or later, which defines uintptr_t. - -gdb/1030: GNU binutils 2.12.1 and earlier versions do not work properly -with gdb. If you use GNU binutils, upgrade to version 2.13 or later. -You can check the version of binutils with the command: - - $ ld --version |
