So whilst we're on the general subject:  has anyone managed to get a glimmer
of an idea as to why gdb 4.x can't recognize SCO UNIX core files?  I tried to
track the logic of the bfd file recognition stuff for core files and got
hopelessly lost, to the point where I can almost believe that they simply
didn't *implement* core files!

The core files can't be *that* different, because I ported gdb 3.5 to SCO UNIX
locally before any SCO-specific patches showed up for it.  Core files worked
with no problems.

...come to think of it, why can I compile something with gcc 1.40 and then not
be able to dump structs inside structs in the debugger, but when I compile it
with pcc I can?  Or is this just Gnu-ish NIH-ism rearing its ugly head again?
(I suspect so, the sdb debugging stuff is liberally sprinkled with grouses
about how COFF syments aren't BSD stabs and therefore simply MUST be lesser
entities....)  I'm not certain I want an answer to that last, although I'd be
interested in finding out if that's fixed in gcc 2.x.
