Summary:                    "Can't read pathname for load map"
Description: 
I just tried loading up a program with the new gdb, on a sol9 system
(5.9 Generic_122300-02 sun4u sparc SUNW,UltraAX-i2)

and got the error in the subject line.

This seems to be exactly like 
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=248898

It makes debugging useless: no stack trace possible.

the problem there is that they suggest "install libc6-dbg", which fixed
their problem.
I have no idea what we should do on Solaris, unfortunately.
btw, I read the README.CSW file, and my shell is /bin/ksh
