gdb bug or g++ bug
#551
Author: Xiannong Meng

I cannot set up break point in gdb using method names. I read all the
documents, I've asked a few people, I've posted a note in gdb.bug. No clue was
found. So I turn to you. Hope this is a bug, or is not.

However, I did it successfully on earlier versions of gdb/g++. All the script
files are attached.

Thank you very much,
