State-Changed-Why:
    Hello,
    
    gdb 4.17 is too old to support.  Please upgrade your gdb version to gdb 5.3 or gdb 6.0.
    
    I tried your test program on native i686-pc-linux-gnu with the following versions:
    
      gdb 5.2, gdb 5.2.1, gdb 5.3, gdb 6.0
      g77 2.95.3, g77 3.3.2
      -gdwarf-2 and -gstabs+
    
    All these configurations worked for me.  "print substr" printed the correct result, and "ptype substr" said that its type is "character (5)".
    
    It's not clear whether your "f77" command is the GNU Fortran-77 compiler or perhaps someone else's Fortran-77 compiler.  If it's the GNU compiler, then you can see the compiler version with:
    
      f77 --version
    
    If it's not the GNU FORTRAN compiler, you'll have to do something else to find out the compiler version.
    
    If it's GNU FORTRAN, please upgrade the compiler to a later version, such as 2.95.3 or 3.3.2.
    
    Then upgrade your gdb to a later version, such as gdb 5.3 or gdb 6.0.
    
    If the bug still occurs with more recent software, then I'll really need that compiler version number.  Also typing "ptype substr" in gdb would help in figuring out the bug.
