Hello,

Usually, when we open core files using GDB 6.8 the stack shows correctly (w=
hile GDB 5.3.9 shows '?? ()' for several frames).

However, from time to time we encounter core files for which the opposite i=
s correct. Namely, we can see the stack correctly with 5.3.9 but not with 6=
.8.

This phenomenon happens on the same machine and executables are compiled us=
ing the same environment. We have no idea regarding the cause of this weird=
 behavior.=20

I would be thankful if you could shed some light on this issue.

Regards,

Avi
