On the above set-up, I attempt to debug a program which opens a
canvas.  I get an error from pr_open about not being able to open
/dev/fb. This only happens if the program is compiled + linked on 4.0
- debugging on 4.0 a program compiled + linked with 3.4 works OK.
Presumably SUN changed something going to 4.0, but they haven't
returned my call.

Dbx can't load my program - compiled with GNU cc. There's a long
standing problem with symbols of type xs (?) but I have no small example
to submit.

Apologies for the report being about an old version of gdb - I'm attempting
to get a newer one. I'll be only too pleased to hear it's beend fixed already!
