Cannot recompile X

[Harold L Hunt II]

The problem here is that you have to continue (press 'c') through the 
first two SIGSEGVs.  They are just C++ exceptions that are caught and 
handled by the pthread code... gdb is just telling you about them.  You 
have to tell gdb to just continue on and let the exception handling code 
handle the problem.
