I think this is a library version mismatch. I remember getting this
problem at one time on an old system, and recompiling gdb myself fixed
it. I think recompiling is the only solution if you don't want to
upgrade to potato (potato will be officially released soon, so if you
wait a little while, you won't have to worry about using "unstable").
