    Hi. A friend on mine (really :-) is having trouble using gdb 4.4
    on an NCR 3000 (SVR4 release 2 i.e. multi-processor version) on
    code compiled with the Metaware High C compiler version 2.3x.

    She has compiled gdb ok (after fixing one thing the compiler
    didn't like) and can gdb programs until they do a libc call:
    stepping over such a call stuffs the stack and symbol table such
    that it is impossible to continue (continuing over a libc call is
    better but still stuffs the stack). She has tried using both the
    dynamic libc and static libc but with the same result. Any help
    would be greatly appreciated.

    cheers ...
