reporter: please be more descriptive about what the problem is. thx!

sorry, I just run choffman's browser buster. If I crashed again w/ the same stack, what other information would help you?

Ok, it turns out that |cont| works whenever gdb breaks here. So I guess the question is, why does gdb break for SIGLWP and how do i prevent it? Or at least what does it mean. Name Value Default Event SIGLWP 33 Ignore Inter-LWP signal reserved by threads library according to man -s5 signal, it would appear that the solaris ignores this event by default. -- I think, but, man pages are greek to me.

you should be able to configure your debugger to ignore certain signals including sig 33.
