Hi,
the value subscript bug present in 10.1 and fixed in commit
5b56203a7cadd545b33713e98e274e582242e090 breaks, among others, the
lx-symbols command from the Linux kernels gdb scripts, as these rely on
iterating the sections of the loaded modules, which in turn uses array
subscripting.
As the bug fix has already made it into branch gdb-10-branch, are there
any plans to release a version 10.2 with bug fixes any time soon?
Note: I know, you're not responsible for the gdb scripts of the Linux
kernel, I just wanted give a real-world example of consequences stemming
from that bug.
Best regards
Phillip Raffeck
