This bug is specific to STT_GNU_IFUNC. What GDB is printing is actually the return value of the indirect function, i.e. the address of the actual strlen. I believe some patches were posted for this upstream, but never in an acceptable state. -- Daniel Jacobowitz CodeSourcery -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
