The bug is in GCC, but only affects DWARF-2 and thus in particular users of AVR Studio. (Well, for AVR Studio, you could still resort to AVR-COFF, but that has other limitations in the debugging information itself, as well as rather serious bugs in the COFF converter. But it doesn't suffer from the 64 KB limitation.) The good old stabs debug information (-gstabs) doesn't suffer from that problem, so if avarice + GDB (+ any GDB frontend if you prefer) is an option for you, that might indeed help you. As for avarice with the JTAG ICE mkII, you need a version from CVS (IIRC, there are snapshots available). As David Gay fixed the last annoying bug in the mkII support just a few days ago (a breakpoint reached wasn't always announced to GDB, so you need to hit ^C in GDB even though the program already stopped correctly), I think it's now also time to release the current code as avarice 2.4. I've got this on my schedule (now that avr-libc 1.4.0 is finally out). -- cheers, J"org .-.-. --... ...-- -.. .
