Re: breaking on open(2) on linux

Do you mean multiple breakpoint locations?  With 6.8.50.20080411-cvs I just get
one address: the one in libpthread.so.

My `solution' was wrong though, as the symbols for libpthread.so just get
read when a breakpoint is set on open.

For some reason in GDB 6.6, a pending breakpoint gets resolved in libc.so
while in 6.8.50.20080411-cvs it gets resolved in  libpthread.so.
