            Bug ID: 16266
           Summary: "attach" could check build-id
           Product: gdb
           Version: HEAD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: gdb
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: tromey at redhat dot com

Right now you can confuse yourself by starting gdb
with one file, then attaching to a running program
that is executing a different file.  (The typical
problem here is if the two files have the same name,
so you think you are doing the right thing...)

gdb could help with this by comparing build-ids,
when available, and offering to switch the exec file.
