Is there a functional gdb for netbsd 1.3.2 on a pmax (decstation
5000/260 in my case.) Running gdb on hello world (or any program)
seems to die miserably with some messages like:
gdb hello

(gdb) r
Starting program: /tmp/hello 

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
warning: Hit heuristic-fence-post without finding
warning: enclosing function for address 0x5fffbbd0
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.
