The getdents bug that I tracked down > a few weeks ago was a case in point. I agree the dumps are a useful tool in addition to gdb; but I would like to know more what is not reliable with gdb core dump debugging. I actually find that gdb's core dump debugging is often times more reliable than using gdb to debug running programs. The biggest problem I've had with gdb is with debugging threaded apps. gdb is still quite buggy for multithread debugging :( randolph
