Help: problem with gdb

[Bizhan Gholikhamseh (bgholikh)]

HI,
We are running Linux 2.6.11 on our platform with MPC8541.
One of the application gets segmentation fault and creates core dump
upon exit.
 
I moved the core dump to the development environment and when I try to
run 
gdb on the core dump I get the following gdb internal errors. If you
have
any idea to help I greatly apprieciate. Many thanks in advance,
