De-referencing a pointer (for the gdb print command) to a C++ class
instance yields a message "Value can't be converted to integer."

Setting a breakpoint by line-number (used by emacs M-x gud-break)
yields a "No line <n> in file "<file>". where <n> and <file> are
accurate.

Verified on gdb 2001-10-12-cvs built with gcc-3.0.1 on RH Linux 6.2
using "set extension-language .c c++".  C++ source code compiled by
gcc-3.0.1 with  -g -O2 -fPIC  -Wno-deprecated.
