Cannot convert floating-point register

[Lee Merrill]

Hi,

        In gdb 5.1, I get an error message in stack backtraces when certain
functions are on the stack: "Cannot convert floating-point register to
non-floating-point type." The variables in question have a type of
pointer, they are not floating point variables. I checked further, and
the register number assigned to one of the variables is register 17,
which is a floating point register number. In gdb 5.0, the variable is
register 30, which is not floating point, and no error message is
printed in 5.0.

        Any thoughts about how to work around this would be appreciated...

Thanks,
Lee
