problems with GDB on Debian 3.0 for mips


I have an application I build that I can't debug with gdb on Debain 3.0
for mips (on both an SGI Indy and a Cobalt Qube 2). I've sucessfully run
gdb on other large applications like xemacs. Also, if use -static when
linking my app, there is no problem. This same problem can be reproduced
debugging "ls". The log output is below.

  indy-04$ gdb ls
  GNU gdb 2002-04-01-cvs
   [snip]
  (gdb) run 
  Starting program: /bin/ls 
  (no debugging symbols found)...(no debugging symbols found)...
  (no debugging symbols found)...[New Thread 1024 (LWP 23611)]
  (no debugging symbols found)...
  Program received signal SIGTRAP, Trace/breakpoint trap.
  [Switching to Thread 1024 (LWP 23611)]
  warning: Warning: GDB can't find the start of the function at 0xffffffff.
   [snip]
  0xffffffff in ?? ()
  (gdb) bt
  #0  0xffffffff in ?? ()
  #1  0x2aacf3c8 in _dl_init () from /lib/ld.so.1
  Cannot access memory at address 0x38

Any idea what the problem is? I don't subscribe to this mailing list, so
please CC: me.

Thanks,

Chris Plummer
