problem with "info shared", running programs

problem with "info shared", running programs

[Maciej Kalisiak]

I've been experiencing a problem with gdb 5.0 on a linux 2.2 system (Debian,
using the most recent .deb from "unstable").  This is with libc6 2.2.1. As far
as the libraries linked, here's "ldd =gdb":
        libncurses.so.5 => /lib/libncurses.so.5 (0x40022000)
        libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x40060000)
        libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x4007e000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40082000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)

For some time now, whenever I run a program, right at the beginning I get
interrupted twice with
  Cannot access memory at address 0x40016de0
and have to hit continue.  This was a pain, but workable.  I used to not get
this problem before when I ran under 'icewm', but I used to get it under 'KDE
kwm'.  Now I get it under 'icewm'.

What's more interesting, I found out today about "info {shared|file}", and
decided to try it.  "info file" works great, but "info shared" again
complains:
  Cannot access memory at address 0x40016de0

This makes me think that this is somehow related to the shared objects that
are being used...  I did some upgrades just before the first time this started
complaining, so perhaps that's the problem.  Any thoughts?
