Non-nil to assume the interface appropriate for IRIX dbx.
This works in IRIX 4, 5 and 6, but gud-dbx-use-stopformat-p provides
a better solution in 6.1 upwards.
Source Code
;; Defined in /usr/src/emacs/lisp/progmodes/gud.el.gz
;; The dbx in IRIX is a pain. It doesn't print the file name when
;; stopping at a breakpoint (but you do get it from the `up' and
;; `down' commands...). The only way to extract the information seems
;; to be with a `file' command, although the current line number is
;; available in $curline. Thus we have to look for output which
;; appears to indicate a breakpoint. Then we prod the dbx sub-process
;; to output the information we want with a combination of the
;; `printf' and `file' commands as a pseudo marker which we can
;; recognize next time through the marker-filter. This would be like
;; the gdb marker but you can't get the file name without a newline...
;; Note that gud-remove won't work since Irix dbx expects a breakpoint
;; number rather than a line number etc. Maybe this could be made to
;; work by listing all the breakpoints and picking the one(s) with the
;; correct line number, but life's too short.
;; d.love@dl.ac.uk (Dave Love) can be blamed for this
