GDB hangs when debugging exe compiled with 1.9nightly under Windows
When I debugging this , the gdb hanged. Later I found whenever the GDB stepping out a function, it hangs.

The mininum code to reproduce the issue is listed below
fn b()->i32{ return 0; } fn a(){ b(); } fn main() { a(); }

Did you try the latest gdb? Rust is a powerful language but not that powerful :)

I tried the latest version of gdb I could find ubder windows (7.9.1) GDB hangs responseless with a high CPU usage.

I noticed the version but it's not the last. It's a windows gdb bug.
No problems on Linux, using gdb 7.10:

I tried GDB(Cygwin 7.10.1-1) 7.10.1, same problem as 7.9.1. Don't know it is whether gdb or rustc to blame

Gdb should be able to handle broken programs. Does the test binary work as expected on its own?

I'm also experiencing this bug with GDB on Windows in Cygwin; it appears to happen when "step"-ing or "next"-ing over a closing brace in a function. The workaround is to use "fin" instead. Is there already an issue open at GDB/Cygwin/whoever should own it? I doubt this is a Rust issue.

Is anyone still seeing this behavior on the latest rusts/gdbs?
