Hi
First apologies for the long mail. I just thought I tell you exactly what happened :)
I get a crash when trying to lookup a symbol with my cross compiled gdb. It's
just this one symbol (so far), others I can lookup with no problems.
Here's what happens:

This is the written stack dump. Though I worked with the unstripped gdb.exe there
are no symbols in the dump:

I then tried to debug my gdb with the normal gdb, but this doesn't work either:

(gdb)
They both use the same new cygwin1.dll (1.5.10) so that shouldn't be
a problem.
How can I find out what gdb doesn't like about my symbols? The file
was made with an old gcc 2.95.2 (also cross compiled for PPC).
The stripped bin file is working in my target so at most there could
be something wrong with the debug info. I found that even simply
loading the file and doing a ptype CMainTask make both gdb crash.
Now the same again without doing remote communication:

Thanks for any help. If this is fixed in gdb 6.2 please tell me the patch. Compiling
6.2 didn't work for some reason (don't remember now). But I can apply any changes
to my gdb as I need to compile it anyway.
