I've now built a debug build of XFree86 4.2.0.  How do I run xkbcomp.exe 
in gdb?  I tried:

gdb "/etc/X11/xkb/xkbcomp.exe -xkm -m de /etc/X11/xkb/keymap/xfree86 
/tmp/de.xkm"

But when I then click on the run icon (or press R), I get the "Open 
File" dialog.  When I run 'gdb /etc/X11/xkb/xkbcomp.exe', I can push the 
Run icon just fine.  I then see, that a window pops up but closes right 
away.

Hmm....

I now tried to start 'gdb /etc/X11/xkb/xkbcomp.exe'.  Then I opened the 
Console and entered "run -xkm -m de /etc/X11/xkb/keymap/xfree86 
/tmp/de.xkm".  I now get this output in the Console window:

Starting program: /etc/X11/xkb/xkbcomp.exe -xkm -m de 
/etc/X11/xkb/keymap/xfree86 /tmp/de.xkm

Should I do something else?
