This really shouldn't happen.  Have you filed any bugs for GDB?  If not,
I'd suggest you do so.  What is the version of GCC and GDB that you're
using?  It is very hard to say, but it seems GCC is generating wrong
debug information and GDB is getting lost.

Anyway, I was one of the 'printf' guys before myself, but when I really
learned how to use a debugger in a decent way, I must confess that it's
been ages since I don't do printf-debugging :-).  But of course, I guess
this is more a matter of taste than anything else.
