Re: attaching pathdb

[Barry Smith <bsmith@mcs.anl.gov>]

  Harald,

   We need to know the command line arguments for pathdb to attach
properly (each debugger is a little different, hence the hardwiring).
Please send us the pathdb man page and all the output when you
run it with -help and we'll make a tenative patch for you to try.
