Problems in the DJGPP port of GDB 6.3

Problems in the DJGPP port of GDB 6.3

[Eli Zaretskii]

Any ideas about the error messages below?  I already reported in the
past the first one, about out of bounds DW_AT_ranges, so that's a
known problem; but what's with the other two?  Where should I look?

These problems don't happen with GDB 6.1.1, and another DJGPP user
tells me that 6.2.1 has the same problems.

Any help is appreciated.
