gdb 4.7 doesn't compile on a Sun 3 running 3.5 configured as sun3os3. There were two small configuration problems: in the glob and readline directorys, sysdep.h was linked to sysdep-norm.h instead of sysdep-obsd.h. After fixing that, all the libraries compiled. But gdb/sun3-nat.c didn't compile, because it used a type `struct fpu' which isn't declared in Sun Unix 3.5's header files. There seemed to be some similar types, but nothing exactly analogous. I couldn't understand what gdb needed in the type, so unfortunately I can't give a patch, which, I realize probably means nothing can be done, as I feel like I'm the only person left using 3.5 (a vast improvement over 4.x, in my opinion, but that's a different article :-)). karl
