gdb (4.17) hangs on Solaris 2.5.1 when detaching a process

Hi gdb developers,

I have just downloaded the version 4.17 of gdb. I compiled it on 
Solaris 2.6 using gcc 2.8.0. The exe runs fine - no problem.
Then I compiled it on Solaris 2.5.1 using gcc 2.7.2.1. It also
compiled without problems, but when detaching a program gdb hangs.
The only way to stop gdb is to kill it from another window (kill -15).
The attached executable seems not to be effected from doing this.

Do You know about this problem and do You have a solution for it ?


I am looking forward getting an answer from You
