DWARF is the name of the new debug info format used in ELF object  
files.  This suggests a bug in either gcc or gdb (or, possibly,  
binutils), and should be reported if you can figure out which one has  
the problem.  Unfortunately I don't know enough about available DWARF  
tools to help you with that. :-(

It looks like it only happens in deval, and only in some places  
there.  Try removing the object file with that function, rebuild with  
the --save-temps compiler option added, and (assuming the resulting  
executable still shows the problem), send the .i and .s files as  
attachments in a bug report -- probably to the Debian folks, unless  
you know that the compiler you've got has no Debian-local patches  
that could influence this problem.  (You could also try getting the  
latest GDB release from the GNU FTP site, if the Debian one isn't the  
latest.)
