This is stupid:

This GDB was configured as "ppc-yellowdog-linux-gnu"..."/usr/src/25/vmlinux": not in executable format: File format not recognized

probably there's some command line magic to make it work, but there
shouldn't be.
Is this a 64 bits gdb ?
I don't think so - it's whatever ydl4.1 gave me.

A 64-bit binary on a 64-bit machine Should Just Work.  Maybe that's

But is it a 64 bits binary ?
