gdb bug

[blakwolf]

I was testing about stack size, and I tried this

Linux localhost.localdomain 2.2.17-21mdksecure #1 SMP Thu Oct 5 12:52:38 
CEST 2000 i686 unknown

gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-mandrake-linux/2.95.3/specs
gcc version 2.95.3 19991030 (prerelease)

the gdb version is the standard mdk 7.2


address@hidden varie]# cat stack.c
int main(){
  #define MEGA 1024*1024

  #ifdef ONE
    #define MEMORY 8*MEGA
  #elif defined(TWO)
    #define MEMORY 32*MEGA
  #elif defined(THREE)
    #define MEMORY 128*MEGA
  #elif defined(FOUR)
    #define MEMORY 256*MEGA
  #elif defined(FIVE)
    #define MEMORY 512*MEGA
  #endif

  #ifndef MEMORY
    #define MEMORY MEGA
  #endif

  char p[MEMORY];
  int i;

  for (i = 0; i < MEMORY; ++i)
    p[i] = 0;

  return 0;
}

address@hidden varie]# gcc -ostack -g -Wall -pedantic stack.c -DONE

address@hidden varie]# stack
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
