Hello,
On sparc-sun-solaris2.6, I want to use gdb with a m68k target (remote
target mode). MRI tools (microtech: mcc68k v4.4, asm68k v7.0, lnk68k
v7.0) throught platine utilities(v4.30) are used to produce an object
file in ieee 695.
At the begginning GDB doesn't recognize this file because i configured
it for m68k-monitor-none.
As yoo say,I build gdb again as a m68k-monitor-ieee. So BFD and Gdb
support IEEE.
So when running gdb with a small soft with debug information:

(gdb) file etoto.xray
warning: little endian file does not match big endian target.
Reading symbols from etoto.xray...I'm sorry, Dave, I can't do that.
Symbol format `ieee' unknown.
(gdb)
The m68k Target is really big endian style. And according the
specification of IEEE format, the file is little endian style.
Do I make something wrong? (perhap my targe?)
Any idea are greatly appreciated.
Thanks
