While trying to track down an urgent-type problem the other day, I gave 
an "attach" command, as I have done for a very long time.  Much to my 
surprise, gdb came back with a "Can't attach to processes on this machine"
message.  Rather disconcerting -- I *used* to be able to...

A bit of digging got me to inftarg.c, where the ATTACH_DETACH symbol was
apparently not defined.  That symbol is defined in nm-sun4os4.h, which has
a link "nm.h" made to it.  I don't know if this is the correct solution for
all architectures, but I fixed the problem on my Suns by including nm.h into
inftarg.c.
