Hi ,
       I am using Gcc-4.3.3 and gdb-6.8.
       My GDB is unable to print external variables. It is treating  
external variables as integers by default and is generating wrong output.
       If we explicitly type casting them then it is printing correctly.

       Is this complier issue(related to debugging information) or GDB issue

Thanks in advance

Sounds like missing debug info.
Were the external variables compiled with -g?
