[RFA] New skip __main version

Pierre Muller muller@ics.u-strasbg.fr
Sat Jun 7 07:48:00 GMT 2008


Here is a new version of this patch:
it should fix the concern I raised about
potential wrapping problems if
CORE_ADDR is 64 bit wide.
  I am still unable to test the 64-bit as
the --enable-target=all --enable-64bit-bfd 
is still broken.
  A patch has been submitted by Ulrich Weigand
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2008-05/msg00537.html
but has not yet been committed, prevent 
successful compilation of gdb configured with the two options
above :(

For cygwin native gdb, the testsuite results show no change to the previous
version.
