I don't know where else to turn here.  Most of the official gdb 
documentation, and the general technical mail list, seem to be located 
at sources.redhat.com, which hasn't responded for several days.

Here's my problem.  I have a cross target environment where the host is 
a PC running Red Hat 9 and the target is an ARM9 board.  When I try to 
debug a program using gdbserver on an NFS-mounted volume, the first 
thing it says is "can't access memory at address 0".  Yet if I step 
through the code, it appears to execute.

Then, when I try to step over a shared library function, I get "Cannot 
find bounds of current function".  This leads me to believe that the 
problem lies with finding host copies of the shared libraries on the 
target.  There are some vague references in the gdb user's manual about 
how to specify shared library files, but they don't seem to work.  Gee, 
what a surprise!

I would love to find some kind of documentation that hints at a 
solution, but so far I haven't found it.  Lacking that, it sure would be 
nice to find a community of active gdb users.  Is there such a thing?

Thanks,

Doug
