[Bug 1319316] Re: gdb: Reading symbols from bin/mir_unit_tests...Segmentation fault (core dumped)

[Andreas Pokorny]

I made some further attempts with older versions of "mir_unit_tests".
Binaries built with g++-4.8.2-1ubuntu6 or maybe even before that work
while all binaries built with g++-4.8.2-4ubuntu1 have the issue.

Title:
  gdb: Reading symbols from bin/mir_unit_tests...Segmentation fault
  (core dumped)

Status in Mir:
  New
Status in “gdb” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Something has changed recently in mir_unit_tests such that it is now
  undebuggable, causing gdb itself to crash:

  $ gdb bin/mir_unit_tests 
  ...
  Reading symbols from bin/mir_unit_tests...Segmentation fault (core dumped)

  I'm logging this as a Mir bug because it seems to be limited to
  mir_unit_tests. Maybe we can fix something as a workaround.
