There was a discussion about better ways of fixing this but this regression is still present in 32 bit x86 (64 bit seemss to be OK and finds the register values in cache somehow). Current behaviour breaks remote debugging when using GDB in Emacs as it currently uses "info frame". If this behaviour can't be fully resolved before the release could a less than perfect patch be applied to prevent the assertion error? -- Nick http://www.inet.net.nz/~nickrob
