Description william.crocker 2003-04-23 12:28:00 UTC 
[Converted from Gnats 1185]

GDB consistently crashes when step or next at a
"fairly simple" constructor call.

...
String forr;        <---- Crashes when I step or next here.
...

I realize this is not much information.
I can investigate further if someone can suggest
how to proceed.

Given the age of this bug and the lack of info, I am closing it.
I'm sorry nobody responded.  If you can still make gdb crash this way,
please reopen this.
