(y or n) y This is a bug with current GDB that I have reported: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9786 (The connection with Emacs is that it issues "info frame" behind the users back). I've added it as something that needs to be fixed before the next release (7.0) at: http://sourceware.org/gdb/wiki/GDB_7.0_Release It don't think it happens with GDB 6.7, or earlier, and, while I see it in 32 bit x86 GNU/Linux, it doesn't appear to happen in 64 bit. -- Nick http://www.inet.net.nz/~nickrob
