Hello,

We've been having a kernel panic using Digital Unix 4.0B and gdb-4.16.
All a user has to do is run gdb and try to step through a program. At
first we were using a version compiled on Digital Unix 3.2D, but then we
re-compiled the source on version 4.0 and still have the same problem.
The system will hang with a message something like 'kernel memory
refernece error... Syncing Disks' You have to press the halt button in
order to force a panic.

Anyone heard of a patch/workaround for this?

Thanks,
-Eric.
