Incidentally, we moved away from the '-var-update *' approach because
it causes gdb 6.5 to crash in certain situations under Linux.

I hope you'll forgive me for saying that that's infuriating behavior.
The CDT developers seem to do it too. I don't believe you've reported
this bug; therefore it will never be fixed, and folklore will
propogate that -var-update * is unusable.

Bug #'s 2188 and 2190.

Ah, I figured those weren't associated. My mistake and apologies. A testcase was sent to me for 2188 off-list. I can't reproduce it, however.

We'll try and get some better information on reproducing the problem.
