xorg crash with mgp and debugging problems (was: External Display on Powerbook5,6 )



Meanwhile I have tried many combinations to find out why mgp stopped working
with Xorg server. I might have run into other problems on ppc, too,
this is why I am asking here. It might as well be a library problem.

The bug is filed now at:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3289
	mgp (magicpoint) crashes Xorg

I am not sure what to make out of the gdb problems 
(/build/buildd/gdb-6.3/gdb/infrun.c:2642: internal-error:
insert_step_resume_breakpoint_at_sal: Assertion
`step_resume_breakpoint == NULL' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,)

and that I cannot get a backtrace in the end (probably Xorg
corrupted its stack).

Any hints which of my ppc tool chain parts (gcc, libraries, gdb,
Xorg) might be the real cause of the problem?
