Snapshot from 20020403, 5.2.0, 5.2.1.

I haven't taken a snapshot from the 5.3 branch as it takes a few hours to
transfer to the stand-alone network. I shall do that tonight. Is there a
reason to expect this fixed in the latest snapshot when its been a problem
for a long time (PR 207 is dated Tue Sep 04 09:18:01 PDT 2001) and I don't
see any resolution information in the PRs.

Which GDB? Have you tried a snap from the latest branch
(ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/gdb/snapshots/branch/)?
