Hi, This goes together with the first binutils patch described here: http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2012-04/msg00423.html That together with the following patch will make gdb handle DW_AT_high_pc constant form following DWARF 4+. Tested on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu against both a patched and unpatched gcc from git trunk (to output the new form for DW_AT_high_pc). Cheers, Mark
