Subject: View backtraces for core dumps generated under OS X 10.4.8 on intel macs
Date: Thu, 02 Nov 2006 19:19:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <03FD4AE3-7C29-4C01-A2EB-5C48292E5FE2@gmail.com> (raw)

The bug:

Can't view backtraces for core dumps generated under OS X 10.4.8 on  
intel macs.
GDB reports "Core file contained no thread-specific data" after  
loading the core file.
I can reproduce the bug with gdb in Xcode 2.4 and 2.4.1

The patch to Apple's gdb-563 sources:
