There are several possibilities: 1. You may have installed a version of libstdc++.so.N compiled with '-g' into /usr/lib/debug. In that case, you should be able to use that version with 'export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/debug' 2. You may have installed libstdc++.N.debug debug-info file into /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib/... In that case, all you should need is a version of gdb that understands debuginfo files. Since you referred to RH-7.2 errata, it sounds like you are using an ancient system, so option 1 is the more likely one. >> http://catb.org/esr/faqs/smart-questions.html > > And here I was asking questions after reading the above ... :-) ;-) > Anyway, I recognize that my questions were too vague.

You should at least post the gdb backtrace -- it may not give you any clues, but may give someone else a good idea of what you are seeing. > However, I had seen that gcc 2.96 had some problems with handling > exceptions.

The 'gcc-2.96' generally works fine, but there are weird corner cases where it doesn't. [I know such corner cases exist, but I've never seen one myself.] Even if someone reading this group has seen such a corner case, you didn't give any details which would enable that person to tell you that you are likely seeing the same corner case, and point you to a bug report or a workaround.
