Configuring gdb for SCO Unix 3.2.2

I am not sure to which group to post this, but here goes anyway ...

I have recently obtained GNU gdb 4.6 from ftp.uu.net, and I am trying to
get it going on SCO Unix 3.2.2. I have a number of minor problems ...

"config.sub sco" outputs "i386-unknown-scosysv322" - why the "unknown",
when the README states that "sco" is a valid value for "vendor" ?

I have gcc 1.39 (binaries only, kindly donated ages ago by a friend).

I ran "config sco", followed by "make", and got a nice binary, which even
runs, and will debug programs compiled with SCO cc.

However, it does not recognise core files. Also, it will not debug
programs compiled with gcc (including itself).

I had a little troll through the source directories, and found something
called bfd/sco-core.c. In the comments at the top, it said to include
"HDEFINES=-DSCO_CORE=1
HDEPFILES=sco-core.o"
in the "config/h-HOST" file.

Not finding such a file, I added these lines to config/mh-sco, did a
"make clean", and then "make".

Sadly, there was no improvement :-(

Can anyone point me in the right direction to get this working on SCO -
preferably recognising all kinds of core files, and debugging binaries
produced with both cc and gcc.

Please reply by mail, or to biz.sco.general, as I don't read the gnu
newsgroups regularly.
