Seems to happen if you use the -ac patch set in 2.4 kernels as well. Quite annoying and the lack breakpoints is only part of the problem. Seems like ptrace() calls fails incorrectly. I don't know if this is a gdb bug but it rather seems like a kernel bug. Took me forever to figure out why my gdb didn't work.

If you're going to use the 3.2.x series, you should at least use 3.2.2
That's what I have. It's the default compiler in Debian/Sid. Gdb seems to be broken on my development machine with the kernel 2.5 - it cannot set breakpoints. I will try to trace the process with gdb on some other machine with Sid... Frankly, I don't see what might be overoptimized in svg.c - there isn't even the create() function which is what hangs. That makes me think the problem might be somewhere else and Image.SVG is only triggerring it.
