> There is a problem with 1.5.5rc1 that prevents padb from loading the process table start from the orterun process, what appears to be happening is that MPIR_proctable and MPIR_proctable_size is present in both orterun itself and also in libopen-rte.so, the code is correctly setting them in libopen-rte.so however when gdb is picking the variable from orterun in preference and hence padb is reading NULL values.
Indeed, there are two definitions, but a single declaration. This is true for both the trunk and the 1.5.
./orte/mca/debugger/base/base.h:61:ORTE_DECLSPEC extern struct MPIR_PROCDESC *MPIR_proctable;
./orte/mca/debugger/base/base.h:62:ORTE_DECLSPEC extern int MPIR_proctable_size;
./orte/mca/debugger/base/debugger_base_open.c:42:struct MPIR_PROCDESC *MPIR_proctable = NULL;
./orte/mca/debugger/base/debugger_base_open.c:43:int MPIR_proctable_size = 0;
