My particular interest is in debugging code with _complex_ nos.
In the reference that Hans-Bernard pointed us to it states that
future versions of gdb will be able to debug src that uses _complex_
using the notation foo$real and foo$imag (or something similar)
However I've tried this with gdb 4.18 (and the 4.16 that ships with
rhide 1.4.7) and only gotten the message "foo$real:not available".
Any one got any ideas on debugging these complex number
routines short of a bunch of printf's

TIA

Andrew
