Something > like the textmode.o module for cygwin compiled programs. I said a couple of weeks ago that I had a really nasty patch for this problem, but never got around to cleaning it up. You've built a Cygwin GDB, therefore when it needs to construct a path, it uses forward slashes. Yet your debugging info matches what you gave the compiler, i.e. has backwards slashes. The debugger needs to be taught smarter filename comparison. -- Daniel Jacobowitz CodeSourcery
