>Description:
        pkg_add dumps core (apparently after extracting the binary
        archive). The core file ends up in /var/tmp/instmp.*.
        I'm using pkgsrc-2005Q1. The binary package was just created
        from the same pkgsrc tree.

        warning: Hit heuristic-fence-post without finding
        warning: enclosing function for address 0x1fffff3e8
        This warning occurs if you are debugging a function without any symbols
        (for example, in a stripped executable).  In that case, you may wish to
        increase the size of the search with the `set heuristic-fence-post' 
command.

        Otherwise, you told GDB there was a function where there isn't one, or
        (more likely) you have encountered a bug in GDB.

        None known yet.
