Folks,  

The Insight in GDB 5.0 has many, many bugs.   This code is from before
I got involved and fixed many bugs ages ago.

There are also bugs in the ARM target handling that were fixed at 
approx. the same time period.

Please switch to a recent snapshot.  Try GDB 5.1 for instance,
which is a stable version
.
People who had similar problems and did so have reported that
their problems had gone away.

Regards to all,
Fernando
