I sent in a description of this bug while ago, and never heard
anything. (It could be the sucky interleaf mailers never sent my
earlier mail.)

Is this a bug? Is it known? Any plans for a fix?

    Subject: gdb return short bugs

    Put this into /tmp/foo.c:
    /* BEGIN foo.c */
    short a()
    {
	return ( 1 );
    }
    main()
    {
	a();
    }
    /* END foo.c */

    Compile foo.c with gcc:
	    cd /tmp
	    gcc -g foo.c -o foo

    Debug foo and use finish to get the return value from a():
	    gdb foo
	    b a
	    r
	    fin

    The return value is printed is "$1 = 0" it should be "$1 = 1".

    There used to be other problems with short parameters and local, but
    those may all be fixed now, I'm not sure.
