Comment 2 Keith Seitz 2020-03-23 19:23:04 UTC

This bug occurs because the C expression parser classifies `list' as a file name.
Hence, "b->FILENAME" is a syntax error.

This appears to have been fixed upstream in commit 59498c305e6f1db2a1ed8d44cb58f0d24ec092fe,
and we should have a shot at backporting that patch.

In the meantime, DTS9 contains this patch, and that might offer you a path forward until/if
this bug is marked for inclusion in a release.

Reproduced against gdb-7.6.1-119.el7.x86_64 and verified against gdb-7.6.1-120.el7.x86_64
