Markus,

I'm not sure, but i think you may need to specify a core file at
startup, or attach to a process that you want to debug...

process id of program to debug = 4128
user@host:~$ gdb
(gdb) attach 4128
Attaching to process 4128

0xff319ad4 in syscall () from /usr/lib/libc.so.1
(gdb)

now try your catch...  I'm not sure if that helps or not, but good luck
:-)
