I installed a 14.10 image in a virtual machine. The gdb that came with that (as
a default -- I installed nothing other than the image from Ubuntu) is
7.8-1ubuntu4 7.8.0-20141001. That also did not crash on me:

$ g++ -D_DEBUG -g -o 17970 17970.cc
$ gdb -nx -q 17970
Reading symbols from 17970...done.
(gdb) start
Temporary breakpoint 1 at 0x4008ce: file 17970.cc, line 5.
Starting program: /home/ubuntu/17970

Temporary breakpoint 1, main () at 17970.cc:5
5     {
(gdb) n
6       char foo[] = "hello";
(gdb) n
8       std::cout << foo << std::endl;
(gdb) p strlen (foo)
$1 = 5
(gdb)

It must be something peculiar to your environment. A stack backtrace might
offer some insight into where things are going wrong.
