Hi John,

thanks for the update.  Interesting to hear that gdb can load up a gm2
binary now.  It guess it must have been the proc type problem which was
fixed last week (temporary variables of type proc type were allocated
zero bytes of store :-).

Anyhow I've just checked in a shared library linking fix which may
account for some of your runtime failures, possibly..

regards,
Gaius
