gdb=HEAD%2003-02-15, gcc=3.2.2, binutils=2.13.2.1, glibc=2.2.93-5-rh
gformat=dwarf-2
>Description:
The test issues the command:
-var-create fooPtr * foo
gdb replies with:
^done,name="fooPtr",numchild="3",type="struct _foo *"
The correct reply is:
^done,name="fooPtr",numchild="3",type="Foo *"
stabs+ gets this right with all compilers.
dwarf-2 is okay with HEAD%20030214 and gcc-3_3-branch%20030214.
dwarf-2 is broken with gcc 3.2.2, 3.2-7-rh, and 2.95.3.
Daniel J says that this is a gcc bug and has been fixed in current gcc:
