Description Johan Walles 2003-10-07 11:04:08 UTC 
I would like to see a libunwind based gdb in some future release of RHEL / ia64.

That would enable us (BEA) to get stack traces through signal handler
boundaries, as well as getting stack traces through dynamically generated code.

I know you have been looking into this a bit, I'm filing this bugzilla for
tracking progress.

This will be included in RHEL3-U1.
gdb-6.0post-0.20031117.6 is the version.
You will need the libunwind rpm as well.
