The following output was generated using "gdb gdb -c core" after a crash of "gdb touchware" where "touchware" is a program I compiled with the egcs compiler on RH6.0. The bug is repeatable on every machine I have RH6.0 installed on, all i386 machines, 2 pentiums, 1 486. GNU gdb 4.17.0.11 with Linux support Copyright 1998 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
