Yes it seems to be specific to RHIDE :( I have created the executable using
gcc from the command line, and run gdb and even rhgdb (RHIDE version of gdb)
without the problem being repeated. I have also repeated this using RHIDE to
build the exe, and once again running gdb and rhgdb from the command line.
No problem ? But in using rhgdb from RHIDE the problem persists ?
Tahnks for your help  8)
