Source lines out of sync with instructions

Can you try and run without the GUI?  If when you say step and get into your 
subroutine you see the same problem (use the list command to print the source 
lines or look at what was printed by gdb when it stopped -- usually a line 
number but you may get an hex address instead/as well).

Maybe the version of GDB you are using has a problem with your architecture 
(insight is just a GUI to the GNU debugger, which still does the actual 
breakpoint debugging).  Is this i386, MIPS, or what?

Regards,
Fernando
