Unfortunately there is a bug in GCC 4.x when it generates STABS debug
info (old style, used by our m68k-atari-mint tools). When loading such
executable in gdb, errors like "cannot set breakpoint 0" appears, and it
crashes after a few steps.


I do not see such errors.


That issue is very complicated. It requires deep STABS knowledge, so I
have not investigated it.

As a result gdb is almost unusable with executables built with GCC 4.x :-(


I just tried to compile with -g. Same result.
I do not need much, I just would like to see the backtrace of an app that crashes.
