Er, yes.  Can I reproduce it?  I don't think so...

The sources for the bfd-based gdb and binutils (not gas yet) are on
sun-lamp, in my home directory.  I've asked the various netbsd folks
to play with it (and, hopefully, port it to the other architectures%),
but I haven't heard much in response.

% Well, I've been rewriting ptrace() recently, and, much to my disappointment,
there is only support for the '386, even in sun-lamp's sources.  Part of
my goal in the rewrite is to fix this as much as possible.
---

In any event, the next release of both binutils and gdb will have netbsd
support in it.  (Configure name:  netbsd386.)
