7 | Contrary to the GDB 5.1.1 announcement, the update did not contain |
8 | fixes to a i386 floating point problem. The latest sources do contain | |
9 | the fix and it will be included in GDB 5.2. | |

17 | Due to a problem (conflicting types) with libiberty/regex.c, GDB 5.1 | |
18 | does not build on HP/UX 10.20 when using the HP supplied compiler. | |
19 | ||
20 | Due to bit rot, GDB 5.1 does not work on HP/UX 10.20 when built with | |
21 | GCC. | |

25 | ||
26 | Due to a problem with ltconfig and long argument lines, GDB 5.1 does | |
27 | not configure on HP/UX 11.00. | |

32 | GDB 5.1 has a number of problems on this platform (Ref PR gdb/237). A | |
33 | GDB 5.1 built with ``CC="cc -DUSE_LDR_ROUTINES"'' is reported to work | |
34 | much better. | |

39 | GDB 5.1 is known to have problems on this platform (encounters an | |
40 | internal error in the symbol table reader). | |

45 | There are known problems with building GDB 5.1 using GCC 3.0.x for the | |
46 | 64 bit SPARC target (bad code gen). You could try a development | |
47 | version of GCC. | |

51 | ||
52 | There are known problems with GDB 5.1's thread support on this | |
53 | platform. Non-threaded programs should work. | |

58 | GDB 5.1 assumes that the host C compiler implemends alloca(). GCC is | |
59 | one such compiler. This problem should be fixed on the trunk. |
