Are you _absolutely_ sure?  Did you try the GDB command I suggested
above?

If this is GCC 3.0.2 or later, -ggdb3 means the debug info is in the
DWARF2 format.  It's possible that your version of RHIDE doesn't yet
support DWARF2 debug info very well.  So I suggest to rebuild with
the -gstabs+ option instead of -ggdb3, and see if that helps.

What, you mean you can post a short test C program which could be
compiled and used to reproduce the problem?  If so, please post such
a program here.
