Ok, the latest snapshot hangs rather than reports "Interrupted system call"
whenever the the code below is executed. To be specific, the source
disappears and it reports:
Select function name to disassemble
====
The stack is listed as ????
struct timeval tv;
336
- 337 tv.tv_sec = seconds;
338 tv.tv_usec = microseconds;
- 340 return(select(0,NULL,NULL,NULL,&tv));
341
Doesn't really matter what's in tv, but here's a sample
(gdb) display tv
1: tv = {tv_sec = 3, tv_usec = 0}
(gdb) show version

===============
Any idea what I can try next? Its weird that ddd doesn't have the same
issue using gdb.
