Perhaps because that GPC binary distro was compiled with "-s" ?
Thank you for your reply. I am not certain that I understand, though. Are you saying that because the compiler itself is stripped of debugging information, it does not generate proper debugging information for programs that it compiles?
I note that gpc-20020410, when built with the same options, produces an executable from the test program I supplied that works as expected with gdb. Something appears to have changed between 20020410 and 20020510 to the debugging type information for the predefined types.
