No special tweaks or mods needed. Gdb-4.8 worked > just fine, too. Which *BSD are you using, anyways? I'm using NetBSD-current. I didn't see the problem with NetBSD 0.8 or 386BSD so I'm assuming the problem has something to do with the a.out changes. None of the GNU binutils work either - the problem is in how the libbfd routines read in a.out files. GNU probably needs to recognize NetBSD (0.9+) as a unique configuration type in its configure scripts. -- Mci aigh vojs Jim McKim / Internet: mckim@lerc.nasa.gov gcashvwbu pshhsf hc Phone: +1 216 891 2283 / Packet: kb8dcr@kb8dcr.ampr.org rc hvob rsqfmdhwbu fchhsr gwubohifsg..
