I tried gdb 5.0 and it compiled (at least).

Since I haven't used gdb in this way before, please let me ask
whether I used it correctly:

I created a z8k coff executable "hello".
Start z8k gdb
"target sim"
"load hello"
"run"

-> gdb segfaults

So it looks broken :-(

My binutils assignment isn't finished yet, I will try to fix binutils
first (which with my patches seem to work quite well for me).
Later I might look into gdb then (if time permits etc..)

regards,
chris
