I've build gdb 7.1 on Centos 5.4 x86_64 using the system compiler.  I'm trying
to debug a c++ application and moved to 7.1 to get past issues in 6.8.  However,
when I stop and try to print an expression, it literally takes minutes for gdb
to come back with the answer on a 4 core 3GHz server.

A snapshot is below.  The vector below is standard stl vector and tokenOffset is
just a struct.  I C-c'd it after 3 minutes.  It will eventually print the right
answer, but it takes a ridiculous amount of time.

6.8 and 7.0.1 work as expected on the same debug binaries.  I built 7.0.1 out of
the box as well as 7.1.  6.8 is the system gdb.


537       vector<tokenOffset> toks;
(gdb) 
539       unsigned prev_type = TOK_WHITESPACE;
(gdb) p toks.size()
Quit
(gdb) show ver
