I'll try to fix it again.
Fixed. gdb 6.5 also works again. It starts a lot slower than 6.6, so I
guess 6.5 read all debug information on startup (which is why it
crashed immediately) while 6.6 and later only read the debug info as
needed (and hence only crashed when the type info it can't handle was
needed).
