[Elbert, *please* keep bug-gnulib in CC. Your refusal to do so wastes my time with mail management: First, I have to forward your mail to the list. Then since I reply to the forwarded mail I cannot use the mailer's normal "Reply" feature and have to indent each line one by one. And then the automatic grouping of related mails in the mailer does not work, so I have to do manual triage. This is very annoying!!]

Debugging with gdb generally goes like this: - You compile with debugging information (that's what you CFLAGS=-g above is for). - Run gdb on the program: $ gdb test-fflush - Inside gdb, control the program: (gdb) help (gdb) run (gdb) where (gdb) info locals Try debugging a simple hello-world program first, to get familiar with breakpoints and single-stepping.
