[TCLCORE] Tk + mingw + gdb breakpoint issues

[Alexandre F. <ale...@gm...>]

Hi,

I'm having trouble debugging Tk with gdb under mingw (XP SP2).
Basically any breakpoint in tk86.dll is ignored. Tcl86.dll is fine.
I suspect some mess in object-source mapping with relative paths, because

 (1) Function lookup by name in Tk wrongly ends up in Tcl:

   br Tk_CanvasEventuallyRedraw
    Breakpoint 2 at 0x10056644: file ./../generic/tclCompile.c, line 2185.

 (2) Manual breakpoints (with emacs gdb mode), though they seem to
point to the proper source location, are ignored:

    Breakpoint 3 at 0x1005863d: file ./../generic/tkCanvas.c, line 4465.

Any such experience ?
