Contrary to the GDB 5.1.1 announcement, the update did not contain
|
|
|
|
|
fixes to a i386 floating point problem. The latest sources do contain
|
|
|
|
|
the fix and it will be included in GDB 5.2.

hppa2.0-hp-hpux10.20
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Due to a problem (conflicting types) with libiberty/regex.c, GDB 5.1
|
|
|
|
|
does not build on HP/UX 10.20 when using the HP supplied compiler.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Due to bit rot, GDB 5.1 does not work on HP/UX 10.20 when built with
|
|
|
|
|
GCC.

hppa2.0w-hp-hpux11.00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Due to a problem with ltconfig and long argument lines, GDB 5.1 does
|
|
|
|
|
not configure on HP/UX 11.00.

alpha-dec-osf5.1
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
GDB 5.1 has a number of problems on this platform (Ref PR gdb/237). A
|
|
|
|
|
GDB 5.1 built with ``CC="cc -DUSE_LDR_ROUTINES"'' is reported to work
|
|
|
|
|
much better.

alpha-dec-osf4.0e
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
GDB 5.1 is known to have problems on this platform (encounters an
|
|
|
|
|
internal error in the symbol table reader).

|
|
|
|
|
|
There are known problems with building GDB 5.1 using GCC 3.0.x for the
|
|
|
|
|
64 bit SPARC target (bad code gen). You could try a development
|
|
|
|
|
version of GCC.

i586-sco-sysv5uw7.1.1
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are known problems with GDB 5.1's thread support on this
|
|
|
|
|
platform. Non-threaded programs should work.

*-*-*
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
GDB 5.1 assumes that the host C compiler implemends alloca(). GCC is
|
|
|
|
|
one such compiler. This problem should be fixed on the trunk.
