In particular the PA8800 crashes are so weird that I can't get the same thing under the debugger. Also, when a process dies in gdb 6.x it throws away the process information and I can't look at the maps anymore. I have to let it die, remember where it died, start it again and then hope the DSO loading was deterministic (e.g. No weird use of dlopen). c. _______________________________________________ parisc-linux mailing list parisc-linux@lists.parisc-linux.org http://lists.parisc-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/parisc-linux
