>Description:
If two shared libraries contain a function, and one of them
has debug information for it, but the other does not, GDB
will always set breakpoints at the one with debugging
information - even if it's not the one which will be used
at runtime.
>How-To-Repeat:
Run test case solib-weak.exp, posted to gdb-patches 2004-11-30.
>Fix:
I think that, instead of trying to implement shared library
search order, we should offer to set breakpoints at both
copies.
