I am getting a segmentation fault when during initialization of the
rtc library when I try to use the gdb's heap-check feature.  

Here's what I see:

(gdb) set heap-check on
(gdb) r
Starting program: /prj/upadims/code/z00/edisvr/HPUX1020D/EdiSvr
"-#a:p,'^log','^queue.aq','^queue.qa','^map.grpaud','edisvr.memuse':P,(16)ku"

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Does anybody have any idea what's going on here?

I'd start with an updated version of GDB.

Thanks -- installing the correct version of GDB (version 3.3 in my
case) fixed the problem.
