I don't know what architecture H.J. is using, but I can tell you that
shared lib debugging is completely nonfunctional on HPPA (HPUX 10.20).
Can't even get a backtrace when execution is stopped in a shlib...
kind of puts a crimp in the usefulness of gdb, at least for me.
(If this has been fixed since the 20000117 snapshot then nevermind)
