Re: Bugzilla bug 493 - libbfd seg fault

Alan,

I meant IBM's bugzilla, which I was told RedHat can access.  If you can
not, try to run the attached C program on RH 7,1 or 7,2 for IA64.  Here is
a run with the debugger:

This is Bugzilla: the Mozilla bug system.  For more information about what
Bugzilla is and what it can do, see mozilla.org's bug pages.

Error

Bug #493 does not exist.

Exactly which bugzilla did you mean?  There are _lots_ of them around.
In any case, you are better off posting the details here, assuming any
file attachments are not too large.
