Looks like you might be debugging optimized code. It shouldn't be a 
problem, as long as you're aware of the consequences of debugging 
optimized code (for example, registers can be reused for multiple 
variables during the lifetime of a block).

If you're really concerned about it, recompile your application and 
libraries without -O (or -O2, -O3, ...).
