I'll ask one of our web guys to do this -- I personally don't
grok html, so any attempt by me to do this would be an utter
failure.

It's possible that egcs is emitting stabs that gdb-4.16 does
not understand.  I don't really know.

One thing you could try would be to put an #undef DBX_USE_BINCL
before the first reference to DBX_USE_BINCL in gcc/dbxout.c

That turns off some of the new debug symbol features used by
egcs.
