Pretty strange indeed:
coruscant:/export4/Gimp/gimp/tools/pdbgen$ cvs log pdb.pl | grep "date:" | head -1
date: 2001/09/25 23:23:07; author: mitch; state: Exp; lines: +2 -2
It looks like pdb.pl hasn't been modified since september.
I've checked that gimp/app/pdb/display_cmds.c in CVS does contain the
fixed code, but since it is an autogenerated file, it is erased and
replaced by the broken one by the pdb generating code as soon as a make
is invoked at the top-level.
It looks to me that Mitch has commited the right app/pdb/display_cmds.c
file but forgot to commit the right gimp/tools/pdbgen/pdb.pl file.
This raise a question: why app/pdb/display_cmds.c is in the CVS? Imho,
it shouldn't since it is autogenerated.
