- I often run into this problem with 19.2: I run gdb (4.6) and press M-n
- (defined to do a gdb-next) several times in quick succession. When
- the second M-n is pressed before the first gdb-next has completed
- (written its output), emacs goes into an infinite loop (100% CPU
- usage, can't be stopped by C-c C-c or C-g). Same behavior with other
- gdb commands (e.g. stepi). I've never had the problem with GNU emacs.
-
- Has anyone else seen this problem? Any workarounds? gdb 4.6 seems
- quite a bit slower than earlier versions, so I accidentally "type
- ahead" quite often...sigh.
