[q-lang-users] Status on my attempt to port Q to amd64

[Andrew B. <an...@vo...>]

So...I've only had a few minutes here and there to play with this (it's on  
one of my computers at work, and this is not really for my job), but I  
feel like I've made some progress.  However, trying to debug a little, I  
quickly run into what might just be a gdb oddity.

Most of the interesting variables in the environment setup seem to be  
global, or at least external to the q.c file, and the "print" command in  
gdb tells me that there is <<No symbol "source" in current context.>>   
This is also the case for "outid" and "qpath" and seemingly lots of other  
variables.  As far as I can tell, they aren't macros.  Can anyone tell me  
why they are invisible to the debugger?
