I am using gcc 1.40, and xdbx 2.1(patch 2) on a SUN SPARCstation 2. When
tracing program execution the values for function parameters given by the
display command are frequently wrong, or say "reference through bad pointer" or
some such, even when the program is working OK. This occurs particularly with
functions which are passed structures. Is this a problem with gcc or with xdbx
(or both), and how can it be fixed? Any advice, hints or ideas would be
appreciated.
