gdb 7.4.1 does not recognize .gba executables

[herkto]

Good day, everyone, so I have machine with:Linux arch 3.6.7-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sun Nov 18 10:11:22 CET 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I've also got Devkitarm 41 here. And it compile binaries OK - no issues with vba, but when I try to debug .gba file I get:

Code: Select all

[XXX@arch BC]$ arm-none-eabi-gdb -silent BC.gba
"/media/D/custom_demos/BC/BC.gba": not in executable format: File format not recognized

If I try *.elf file, it loads OK, but visualboyadvance or no$gba does not recognize it as valid ROM, hence no remote debugging features can be done.
Windows version works great, of course, I only get this on Linux.
Can we try to fix this issue?
