Subject: querying 1.6 GENERIC kernel

This command worked with 1.5.2's GENERIC kernel:

% echo 'print nmbclusters' | gdb -q /netbsd
(no debugging symbols found)...(gdb) $1 = 1024
(gdb) %

but doesn't with 1.6's:

% echo 'print nmbclusters' | gdb -q /netbsd
(no debugging symbols found)...(gdb) Hangup detected on fd 0
error detected on stdin

which is a bit inconvenient.

How could it be fixed/returned to the old behaviour?
