Is this with -g (i.e. COFF debug info) or with other -g options?  If
the latter, what options were those?

As I wrote earlier today, COFF debugging is completely broken with GCC
3.x (I don't think it's a GDB problem, since it works with older
versions of GCC).

With other debug options it seems to work correctly for me, including
with GDB 5.2.  I tried -gstabs+, -gdwarf-2, and -ggdb3; they all
worked for the sample program you posted.  Setting breakpoints and
stepping works as expected.

If you have specific session transcripts that demonstrate failures,
please show them.

Do you see the same in command-line GDB?  I don't have any problems
with -gstabs+, so please tell how should I try to reproduce that in
GDB.
