Hi,

I have made some findings to resolve this issue. May be this is helpful for you.

We were also facing the similar issue where the gdbserver when linked
dynamically was always resulting in a segmentation fault. We have
ensured that the version of libraries used while compilation are same
in the target also. But still , the gdbserver was resulting in a crash
(always before accept system call).

After going through other mailing lists, I have found that this issue
is happening because of a bug in glibc libraries. I have rebuilt the
glibc libraries (2.3.5 version) for arm after deleting the
sysdeps/arm/memset.S file. I have used the newly built "libc.so.6" and
"ld-linux.so.2" for compilation and runtime environment. This time
gdbserver and other dynamically shared program worked fine.

May be you can give this step a try. I have followed the steps for
building toolchain from http://frank.harvard.edu/~coldwell/toolchain/

Regards,
Dinesh
