I'm trying to port xvtdl and xvgr both of which core dump due to FP
exceptions. When I try and use gdb to run them both display their
windows and then I get the following error:

Program received signal 11, Segmentation fault
0xe91a7 in ndis_d_pri:ndis_send_ascending_fd (1753088, 2147483647,
-71375700, 621208)

This only happens when running under gdb, I do not get segmentaion
faults when not running gdb.

A quick grep through the libraries show this to be in the xview library.
Does anyone know what's happening.
