Re: gdb-4.16.85 is buggy when compiled with native AIX 3.2.5 cc

Below is an example.
The output from the example, compiled with AIX 3.2.5 native cc, is:

fun (no cast) called with 2 and -559038737
fun (cast) called with 1 and 2

whereas all other compilers I know of (including AIX 4.1 cc) produce

fun (no cast) called with 1 and 2
fun (cast) called with 1 and 2

#include <stdio.h>

extern fun (const char *, long long, long);

fun (s, arg1, arg2)
     const char *s;
     long long arg1;
     long arg2;
{
  long l = (long) arg1;
  printf ("fun %s called with %ld and %ld\n", s, l, arg2);
}

main ()
{
  long val = 1L;

  fun ("(no cast)", val, 2L);
  fun ("(cast)", (long long) val, 2L);

  exit (0);
}
