Bug in GAS inhibits DEBUGger functioning.

I keep seeing the following messages from GAS:

gcc-as warning(debugger output):Forward reference error, dbx type 54
gcc-as warning(debugger output):Forward reference error, dbx type 59
gcc-as warning(debugger output):Unable to resolve 1 circular references.

Which make the debugger unusable for that module.  (When the image is run,  it
complains of badly nested DST records, which would figure).

Is this a known bug in GAS?  I'm using the GCC 1.40C and G++ 2.2.2 kits.  Are
there later versions? Is there a fix?  I haven't been able to reduce it to a
simple case yet, but if someone wants to tackle the debugging I'll see if I
can't get something simple to cause the condition.

Thanks
