["Nicholas DiPiazza" <nicholas dot dipiazza at gmail dot com>]

Jojelino asked: 

   "What was the result of
    gdb --args perl
    symbol cygwin1.dll
    define btc
    bt
    c
    end
    # "Function "_sigfe_free" not defined." shouldn't be seen. if it does,
please use latest snapshot including debug symbol.
    b _sigfe_free
    disp *((unsigned*)$esp+1)
    r
    btc
    #and just press enter until sigabrt is hit. ?"

Here is the result.
