Bug? GDB can't display c++ c'tor local variable.

["Koffee Lue" <klu2008@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I found that GDB can't display local variables in a c++ constructor.

Please see the testing code below. When I stepped into the c'tor, and
typed ''info lo'', gdb responded "No locals.", however `tmp' is a
local with type int.

I searched on the web and somebody said it's a bug of gcc rather than
gdb. But that's for gcc 3.x years ago. (see:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-bugs/2007-08/msg00727.html)

Any hint???

Thanks!

Here's my system:
