Bug ID: 27738
Summary: Better error reporting for process startup problems
Product: gdb
Version: HEAD
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: gdb
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: keiths at redhat dot com
Target Milestone: ---
Whenever GDB encounters a problem starting up the inferior, it effectively
only prints
During startup program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
Users have reported wishing that this message was more helpful. I don't
know off the top of my head how possible this is, but perhaps there might
be a way to tell users exactly why a process has failed to startup.
Example use case:
