Thanks. On http://www.cygnus.com/~cagney/ I've copied the file gdb-5.1 which contains a raw copy of my 5.1 mail box. Any gdb post I think might be relevant to 5.1 gets put in there. I then go through and either delete or action each. If you want something to do, check the older items (hint ``[5.1/breakpoint] shlib patch'' :-) Andrew
