Hello, ...

I finally managed to create a ppc fixed gdp backage, and ran it over
the core resulted of my X server 3.9Pq crash.

i got the following stuff :

(gdb) bt 9
#0  0x1581778 in kill () from /lib/libc.so.6
#1  0x1581458 in raise () from /lib/libc.so.6

Ok, when i try to look at more frames than #8, i got a gdb segfault.

is this normal ? where should i send the info about this bug if not
?
