I don't know if this error report belongs here or not.  Is there a bug-gdb
mailing list?

----

The following shows my attempt at using xgdb on a microVAX running Ultrix.
Note the X Toolkit warning message.  The core dump occured when I set a
breakpoint in the main function and clicked on the "run" button.
