Hello!

Some of the changes that have been installed between gdb_6_8-branch and
HEAD cause GDB to no longer function properly on GNU/Hurd under certain
circumstances.

    [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp/gdb/HEAD.build $ gdb/gdb ~/tmp/n1/hurd/ext2fs.static
    GNU gdb 6.8.0.20081008-cvs
    [...]
    This GDB was configured as "i386-unknown-gnu0.3"...

Both have been built (natively) on the same up-to-date Debian GNU/Hurd
system.

For easy reproduction, I can publish the faulting binary.
