Hi Talin,

if I try to use gdb (version 7) with any large program compiled by llvm
with debug info (such as cc1 built by bootstrap) then gdb instantly dies
with a segmentation fault (and it doesn't even ask me if I want a core
dump :) ).  So it looks like there is something nasty going on in general...

Ciao,

Duncan.
