I'm finding some buggy behaviour with Insight.  Might be
my setup.  It freezes sometimes when I have fullscreen windows
for source code, console, and stackframe.  The console window
and stackframe window don't wrap around when it should even
though I "set width 40".  It might be that it can only wrap
around when it encounters a space, which might not be for a
while in the long names of C++'s STL.  And the filename field
on the upper left doesn't update itself if I change files
due to moving up on the stack.  I'm going to give the REAL
up-to-date ddd a try.  http://sourceforge.net/projects/bashdb
