Doc Text:
GDB aborted unexpectedly when an inferior shared library list changed during an inferior function call. This occurred because GDB reset all breakpoints including the temporary breakpoint, which was created by the call, and attempted to delete the breakpoint again after the call finished. The temporary breakpoint now remains valid during the entire inferior function call.
