And this code was broken. It was fixed 2007-11-16. With mainline binutils there is no error here. It is broken in binutils-2.18 and earlier. From inspecting the debug info, I also don't see anything wrong. This looks like a gdb bug. It isn't clear how to reproduce the gdb problem. I don't see any problem with some simple gdb commands on the testcase. Jim -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35615
