Re: Time for a HP/PA hackathon?


What happens if -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE is added? (Not sure of the
correct way to do that in BFD though).


"./gdb ./gdb" ; "break main" ; "run" works.

And it works with gdb built with gcc 3.3.2, ansi c B11.11,
and aC++ A.03.45.

I've checked in a (hopeful) fix.


I do think you're opening up a big can of worms shortly before
the 6.1 branch though.

The 64-bit off_t, enabling the TUI, the HP/UX frame update, or the BFD file I/O rewrite? Of these, it's the TUI that scares me me the most. History shows that only after we've released do we learn about the breakage on the non- mainstream systems.


I do wonder if the next binutils branch should be held off until after GDB's been released - so that it can learn from GDB's mistakes :-)

PS: You haven't seen my post 6.1 branch backlog :-)
