Description Alan Hayward 2019-09-18 17:13:57 UTC 
When a binary is built using PIE, reloading the file will cause GDB to error
on restart.  For example:
gdb ./a.out
(gdb) break main
(gdb) run
(gdb) file ./a.out
(gdb) continue

Will cause GDB to error with:
Continuing.
Warning:
Cannot insert breakpoint 1.
Cannot access memory at address 0x9e0
Command aborted.
