[M3devel] Invitation to test a Windows m3gdb fix

[Rodney M. Bates]

I just checked in what I hope is a fix to an m3gdb target dependency
I have known about since I originally worked on user-typed calls.  It
affects an interactively typed call on a function procedure that returns
a record or array.  It has worked on Linux 1386 for a while, but would
not work on Windows.

I do not expect to have access to a Windows machine with CM3 installed
for at least some time.  Anybody who does is invited to test this.  Just
use m3gdb to stop almost any program at some convenient place and type
something like:

'print P(...)'

where P is a function procedure returning a record type.  Insert
appropriate parameters, of course.

Of course, you first have to get and build the latest m3gdb from CVS,
and it is only in the CM3 repository.

If anybody does it, let me know what happens.
