>Description:
Try compiling this file with "gcj -g":

public class x
{
  public static void main (String[] args)
  {
    char c = args[0].charAt(0);
    System.out.println(c);
  }
}


Using readelf you can see this:

 <2><184>: Abbrev Number: 4 (DW_TAG_subprogram)
     DW_AT_sibling     : <b4>   
     DW_AT_external    : 1      
     DW_AT_name        : x.main(java.lang.String[])     
     DW_AT_decl_file   : 1      
     DW_AT_decl_line   : 458756 
     DW_AT_MIPS_linkage_name: _ZN1x4mainEP6JArrayIPN4java4lang6StringEE 
     DW_AT_declaration : 1      

This confuses gdb.  If you try: b 'x.main', gdb will
tell you there is no such method.

Also this appears for the constructor:

 <2><1db>: Abbrev Number: 6 (DW_TAG_subprogram)
     DW_AT_external    : 1      
     DW_AT_name        : ()     
     DW_AT_MIPS_linkage_name: _ZN1xC1Ev 
     DW_AT_artificial  : 1      
     DW_AT_declaration : 1      

This is also clearly incorrect.
