We have recently found that this kind of wanning message only occurred 
for Fortran programs. We looked into debug information, we found that in 
Fortran programs there's no context of "void" type.

Therefore, some gdb command like "-data-evaluate-expression "(void 
*)&((opal_list_item_t *)0)->opal_list_next"" failed because of "No 
symbol \"void\" in current context."

We have made a little patch into it to fix this issue. Simple insert 
"-gdb-set language c" prior actually to "-data-evaluate-expression" will 
solve it.

We haven't got time to look into PBS issue yet. Once we have any 
information will let you updated.

Kind Regards,
Jie
