As I have mentioned, it is not the binary which causes the problem.
It is the shared library/dynamic linker in glibc 2.1. gdb 4.16.86
is broken in this regard. To verify this bug, you have to run glibc
2.1. FYI, glibc 2.1 has symbol versioning. I am not sure if it is the
cause.
BTW, gdb 970507 is fine.
