Update to my original post:
The same problem does NOT occur on my second PC, where I also have Windows XP + Cygwin and EXACTLY the same versions of gcc (3.4.4) and gdb (6.5.50.20060706-cvs). On my second PC, I get a correct behavior:
gdb a.exe
(gdb) list
1 int main(int argc, char** argv)
2 {
3 return 0;
4 }
(gdb) break 3
Breakpoint 1 at 0x40107a: file main.c, line 3.
(gdb) run
Starting program: /c/TEMP/a.exe
Loaded symbols for /c/WINNT/system32/ntdll.dll
Loaded symbols for /c/WINNT/system32/kernel32.dll
Loaded symbols for /usr/bin/cygwin1.dll
Loaded symbols for /c/WINNT/system32/advapi32.dll
Loaded symbols for /c/WINNT/system32/rpcrt4.dll
Loaded symbols for /c/WINNT/system32/secur32.dll
Breakpoint 1, main (argc=1, argv=0x6637d0) at main.c:3
3 return 0;
