Nick,
We have the following action item for the 6.8 release:
Discard breakpoint address if shared library is unloaded.
Partial patch proposed:
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2007-11/msg00262.html
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2007-11/msg00266.html
This is the only issue left that is not actively being worked on.
I agree it would be nice to avoid this change of output in the 6.8
release, but we need to at least try to fix it in a reasonable amount
of time.
As far as I could tell, the discussions pointed towards the idea
of removing the address and replacing it with "<PENDING>". Can we
expect to see a patch along these lines sometimes soon?
Thanks,
