If you point gdb at AbiWord_d in an installed location (where "make install"
or an rpm package put it, like /usr/local/AbiSuite/bin), the binary
has probably been run through "strip" to remove its debugging information.
You should be able to use any binary in the abi/src/[platformhere]/bin
directory for debugging. You'll need to set ABISUITE_HOME to where
you installed AbiWord before (setenv ABISUITE_HOME /usr/local/AbiSuite)
and change the font path (xset fp+ /usr/local/AbiSuite/fonts) to debug
a binary this way.
