Column #2 is gcc CVS version plus a gdb that *includes* Daniel Berlin's patch to fix demangler compatibility. This shows that gdb has other v3 abi problems besides the changes induced by the demangler. I don't know what those problems are. It requires someone to roll up their sleeves and analyze gdb.log files. I have time to do one of these per week. I'm working in order of "most FAILs first" and I'm on cplusfuncs.exp. > It would be nice if the problems were resolved, however, they are _NOT_ > a 5.1 release criteria so not especially high on my radar. 5.1 needs > to work with real compilers installed on real machines. I respectfully disagree. I think gdb 5.1 needs to be ready for gcc 3.0. Michael Elizabeth Chastain "love without fear"
