Here's take 2. This one actually works. This shows the result
for a simple program.
...
This GDB was configured as "hppa64-hp-hpux11.00"...
(gdb) info shared
No shared libraries loaded at this time.
(gdb) break main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x40000000000029c8: file main.c, line 4.
(gdb) r

One thing that I have noticed is that the shared libraries are always
forced private which makes them writeable. I recently had a program
which dropped core when the library code was shared but not when they
were private.
On hpux 11, the chatr "+dbg" can be used to make libraries private or
shareable. Possibly, it's not a great idea to always force private
libraries. Detection of this is broken for the som target. The
information is now in the shared library header and not __dld_flags.
On hpux 10, I guess we are stuck with forcing private libraries.
Ok?
Dave
