I guess that GDB don't know how to handle anonymous union yet. I ever saw
these failures in a few platform. And also see them ok on others. The
difference I find is that some version of gcc handle the anonymous union
members as normal variables, others don't.
I believe this was a bug in GCC 4.x, very recently fixed in CVS.
Sorry. What is a bug, handle the anonymous union as normal variable, or
don't?

The problem was that the dwarf info generated was incorrect.
It has been fixed in GCC 4.x
