can't open process file

I'm trying to use the gdb packaged with the Intel distribution of
Solaris 8
from Sun. I'm able to start gdb, browse target source and set
breakpoints,
but gdb runs amok trying to run the debug target  --  see messages
below.

To rule out a real permissions problem, I tried the test su'd to root.
In that
case, rather than the "Permission denied" error on ctl, I got an error
complaining
about an unsupported ioctl() operation. If there's anything on this
problem in
the documentation, I sure couldn't find it.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
