There are a lot of multi-user Unix systems that aren't getting tested enough, or tested at all: aix, hpux, irix, solaris. There are very few posts to gdb-testers for those architectures. When I clean up my mailbox and my back-log, I'm going to work on this. I'm going to ask around for people who can give me ssh accounts on such machines, or are willing to become volunteer testers. mec> .
