Yes, I think that is what every one is stumped on.  Making it more 
difficult, a compile time rather than a runtime test is probably needed 
- otherwize it won't be possible to canadian cross GDB.

Perhaphs the real problem is GDB corrupting its stack?  Can you explain 
the test case or is it just ``normal use''?
