Package: gdb
Version: 6.6.dfsg-1
Severity: important
Hi,
Since fairly recently, gdb on powerpc in sid misbehaves when a function
call to a shared library is being executed. Rather than just stepping
into the function (or skipping it if 'next' is being used), gdb first
steps into a function called 'call___do_global_ctors_aux()'.
After going through this function, a number of things may happen: in
some cases it jumps to yet another function before actually going
through the function that has been requested; after that, the request to
skip over the actual function when 'next' has been used may or may not
be totally ignored. In some cases even the return from the function call
is not caught anymore, so that the program simply continues running from
that point on, rather than allowing me to step through the code.
This makes properly debugging programs rather hard.
