RHBA-2005:675: gdb bug fix update  

GDB, the GNU debugger, allows debugging of programs written in C, C++, and other languages, by executing them in a controlled fashion, and then printing their data.
This updated package addresses the following issues:
- GDB on ia64 had previously implemented a bug fix to work-around a kernel problem when creating a core file via gcore. The bug fix caused a significant slow-down of gcore.
- GDB on Itanium issued an extraneous warning when gcore was used.
- GDB on Itanium could not successfully do an info frame for a signal trampoline.
- GDB on AMD64 and Intel EM64T had problems attaching to a 32-bit process.
- GDB on AMD64 and Intel EM64T was not properly handling threaded watchpoints.
- GDB could not build with gcc4 when -Werror flag was set.
- GDB had problems printing inherited members of C++ classes.
- A few updates from mainline sources concerning Dwarf2 partial die in cache support, follow-fork support, interrupted syscall support, and DW_OP_piece read support.
All users of gdb should upgrade to these updated packages, which resolve these issues.
