Hello there,

I just tried to compile package gdb-6.3 on a Redhat Linux box.

The compiler said

../../gdb-6.3/gdb/dwarf2-frame.c:1359: warning: operation on `buf' may be 
undefined

The source code is

          buf += size_of_encoded_value (*buf++);

I agree with the compiler - this code is certainly undefined.
Maybe

          buf += 1 + size_of_encoded_value (*buf);

was intended by the programmer ?

Regards

David Binderman
