           Summary: Add support for the new PDB format
           Product: Wine
           Version: CVS
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-debug
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.com
        ReportedBy: fgouget at codeweavers.com


(from WineConf) This format has been recently added, it is also called 'MSF 7.0'
and does not work with winedbg's current PDB code.

Supporting this new format would be useful to people trying to port their own
applications to Wine (since they obviously have the debug information). Again
the workaround is to instruct the compiler to use the old debug format but this
may not be possible when working with third party libraries.
Support would also be useful if this format is used to ship the debug
information for libraries that come with Windows 2000 or Windows XP.

However, we have yet to find an example of a PDB file in this format. If someone
does find such PDB files, please attach a small sample to this bug (source
file+.exe+.pdb)
Are the PDB files shipped with the MS development SDK in the new XP format?
