I am having a problem with gcc 1.40 on a DECstation 5000. Whenever I
compile a program with the -g option and try to use dbx or gdb,
neither debugger knows anything at all about any local variables. The
only variables I can access are global and static variables. Needless
to say, this makes it very difficult to debug.

Any ideas?
