 I've seen this problem with stock FSF gdb as recently as 6.0 (haven't
 tried later) - it is mips-specific. The problem is not that it's
 getting wrong addresses from the core file but that it does something
 stupid when it has no symbols.
 
 Anyone want to try gdb 6.5? It is easy to reproduce if you have a
 mips; copy /bin/sleep, strip it, run it in gdb, hit ^C...
