   Configuration: Sun 4/60 (Sparcstation 1), SunOS 4.0.3c, gdb 3.4, 
	   gcc 1.36

   Problem: gdb does not seem to treat binaries generated by SunOS cc the
	   same as binaries from gcc.  

   Reproduce by:  Compile the following program with both SunOS cc and
	   gcc:
		   main () {
			   printf ("Hello world.\n");
		   }

	   Next, debug the resulting binaries, executing the following
	   commands in each case:

		   break main	
		   run
		   next

	   For the gcc compiled binary, after giving the 'next' command,
	   the printf executes and the next statement is the final line
	   of the program.  For the SunOS cc compiled binary, giving the
	   'next' command produces:

		   (gdb) next
		   0x4084 in etext ()

This problem has to do with dynamic linking, which GDB does not
understand.  Compile with -Bstatic using SunCC and then see what you
get.
