>Description:
gdb caused a panic trap type 4
there is an error from gdb that says something like:
warning: encountered unknown breakpoint in shared library
(exact wording lost, and I'm not going to try this again!
>How-To-Repeat:
write a really simple hello.c
compile (cc -g -o hello hello.c)
run gdb (gdb hello)
set a breakpoint on the first statement (break hello.c:3)
run the program under debug and stand back! (run)
