GDB isn't that bad.  As long as you remember the function names you used
its pretty easy. 
You can do a lot with p(rint) s(tep) n(ext) and b(reak) bt(race) and
f(rame)

my guess is that if you compile with -gstabs instead of -g it will allow
you to debug as 
you want.  Unfortunately, unless you are using pgcc, your compiler will not
support it.
Go to http://www.goof.com/pcg/ to try it.  Alternatively, go to SETs home
page, patch the gcc
sources, and rebuild.
