Ok, I think I've nailed it (but we've been here before ;).
It looks like there were some breakpoints set in the applications kdbgrc
file that gdb didn't like, and kdbg couldn't grok gdbs repsonses.
I tracked it down by writing a gdb wrapper (attached).
It tee's gdb output to a text file.
Gdbs output is also attached, for reference.
I tried different versions of gdb from 7.5 back to 7.1a to see if any
worked - the one I ran this test with was 7.5.
Regards,
Philip Ashmore
