On Panther, the DevTools install makes a cache of the debugging
information for the system shared libraries, so that it doesn't have
to re-parse them every time it starts up. Of course if any of the
libraries change the cache will no longer be valid. In that case, gdb
spits out this warning, and then ignores the cache. The warning is
harmless, and for a couple of libraries like this the impact on
startup time is minimal. But if you want, you can rebuild the cache.
Instructions for doing this - and a little bit more info on the cache
- are in the gdb Release Notes:
file:///Developer/Documentation/ReleaseNotes/DeveloperTools/GDB.html
