Description
Environment
- OS and version: archlinux
- VS Code: 1.96.0 - insider
- C/C++ extension: 1.23.1
- GDB / LLDB version: GNU gdb (GDB) 15.2
Bug Summary and Steps to Reproduce
Bug Summary:
Sometimes when I start to debug a cpp file, gdb crashes with "corrupted double-linked list". That seems to happen randomly, and usually disappear after a restart or rebuild.
Steps to reproduce:
- In the latest archlinux, install vscode-insider from aur.
- install the C/C++ extension.
- Write a cpp file.
- build
- launch.
- There's "corrupted double-linked list" in the shell.

Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
Start by reproducing the crash with the tasks configuration and launch.json on Arch Linux, using the reported VS Code, C/C++ extension, and GDB versions. Inspect the provided GDB core dump and debugger logs to narrow down the failure; done means launching the configured C++ program no longer causes GDB to abort.
