Thanks for the report. The problem is that kaffe is built with GCC 4.1
which is known to break kaffe because of some aliasing. Compilation of
kaffe with GCC 4.0 wuld fix this but Matthias Klose told me that he will
drop GCC 4.0 from etch/sid soon. Upstream is working on the needed fixes
and will do a release when done. I really hope this is done soon.


Cheers,
Michael

there is a very rough patch to fix kaffe's stack frame unwinding with
gcc 4.1.x for CVS head at http://www.kaffe.org/~robilad/gcc-4.1.rough.diff
I'll see if I can bring it down to just the necessary bits and pieces.
