Check your compiler flags. Use `-g' and DO NOT use `-O*',
`-fomit-frame-pointer', or any other optimization options. They are known to
make debugging screwy.

If this fails to help, please post as small a piece of the source as
reproduces the problem, along with the exact flags you use to compile, RHIDE
version, etc.

Consider the possibilities described in FAQ sections 7.1 and 3.9.
