symbol maintenance


Hello

After loading a file (without starting anything) I tried "maintenance check-symbols".
I got lots of messages like:

Global symbol `__7fixed32' only found in ..(path)..\Inos_typ.cpp psymtab
Global symbol `IntOf__7fixed64' only found in ..(path)..\Inos_typ.cpp psymtab
Global symbol `__7fixed64' only found in ..(path)..\Inos_typ.cpp psymtab
Global symbol `__ml__FG7fixed32T0' only found in ..(path)..\Inos_typ.cpp psymtab
Global symbol `__ml__FG7fixed64T0' only found in ..(path)..\Inos_typ.cpp psymtab

Is this something to worry about? Does this indicate wrong debug info or an
error in gdb? If it's nothing to worry about what's the use of these messages?
Only for gdb interna?

This is a gdb 6.5 cross-compiled with cygwin on WinXP for ppc.

I:\cyghome\data\gdb-6.5\gdb>gdb --readnow
GNU gdb 6.5

This GDB was configured as "--host=i686-pc-cygwin --target=powerpc-eabi".

Are these warnings something to worry about?

Thanks
