See http://sources.redhat.com/gdb/current/ You are going to have to be more specific. From http://sources.redhat.com/gdb/current/ I clicked [download] which took me to http://sources.redhat.com/gdb/download/ whose latest from the release directory took me to ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gdb/ whose directory listing says 08/30/93 12:00AM 1,138 gdb-4.10-4.10.pl1.diff.gz 11/05/95 12:00AM 14,339 gdb-4.15-4.15.1.diff.gz 04/24/96 12:00AM 464,522 gdb-4.16-testsuite.tar.gz 04/24/96 12:00AM 5,996,836 gdb-4.16.tar.gz 04/28/98 12:00AM 8,972,436 gdb-4.17.tar.gz 04/09/99 12:00AM 881,007 gdb-4.18-testsuite.tar.gz 04/09/99 12:00AM 11,657,032 gdb-4.18.tar.gz 05/19/00 12:00AM 12,299,318 gdb-5.0.tar.gz 02/23/01 12:00AM 12 gdb-xxgdb.README 08/31/99 12:00AM 52 xxgdb.README and the most recent entry for gdb-5.0 is over a year old. From my reports, I'm running GNU gdb Red Hat Linux 7.x (5.0rh-15) (MI_OUT) This GDB was configured as "ia64-redhat-linux". on the IA-64/Linux box I have access to. If instead, from http://sources.redhat.com/gdb/download/ I chase the [GDB 5] link I get to http://sources.redhat.com/gdb/5/ which lists The vital stats: -rw-r--r-- 1 cagney gdb 9505342 May 18 23:21 gdb-5.0.tar.bz2 -rw-r--r-- 1 cagney gdb 12299318 May 18 22:33 gdb-5.0.tar.gz which sure looks like the same gdb-5.0.tar.gz as above (the date-sans-year is off by one and the file size is exactly the same). If instead you want me to download the sources, build it, and try it, I'm afraid I've never done that and now is not the time to start.
I don't know ia64, so I have no clue what qp is. I'd guess this to have been fixed since 2001. Please reopen with more info otherwise.
