Ok. Whatever it is, I'm happy it is doing that, since it caused us to see 
the oops quickly. None of _my_ boxes do that, obviously (and I tested on 
x86, x86-64 and ppc64 exactly to get reasonable coverage of what different 
architectures might do - but none of the boxes are debian-based).

It's not important, I was just curious about what strange things people 
have in their bootup scripts.  If you can just grep through the rc.d files 
to see what uses gdb, I'd just like to know...
