7 | Contrary to the GDB 5.1.1 announcement, the update did not contain |
| 8 | fixes to a i386 floating point problem. The latest sources do contain | |
| 9 | the fix and it will be included in GDB 5.2. | |

| 17 | Due to a problem (conflicting types) with libiberty/regex.c, GDB 5.1 | |
| 18 | does not build on HP/UX 10.20 when using the HP supplied compiler. | |
| 19 | ||
| 20 | Due to bit rot, GDB 5.1 does not work on HP/UX 10.20 when built with | |
| 21 | GCC. | |

| 24 | hppa2.0w-hp-hpux11.00 | |
| 25 | ||
| 26 | Due to a problem with ltconfig and long argument lines, GDB 5.1 does | |
| 27 | not configure on HP/UX 11.00. | |

| 32 | GDB 5.1 has a number of problems on this platform (Ref PR gdb/237). A | |
| 33 | GDB 5.1 built with ``CC="cc -DUSE_LDR_ROUTINES"'' is reported to work | |
| 34 | much better. | |

| 39 | GDB 5.1 is known to have problems on this platform (encounters an | |
| 40 | internal error in the symbol table reader). | |

| 45 | There are known problems with building GDB 5.1 using GCC 3.0.x for the | |
| 46 | 64 bit SPARC target (bad code gen). You could try a development | |
| 47 | version of GCC. | |

| 51 | ||
| 52 | There are known problems with GDB 5.1's thread support on this | |
| 53 | platform. Non-threaded programs should work. | |
| 54 | ||
| 55 | ||
| 56 | *-*-* | |
| 57 | ||
| 58 | GDB 5.1 assumes that the host C compiler implemends alloca(). GCC is | |
| 59 | one such compiler. This problem should be fixed on the trunk. |
