Instead the program continues to the end. Similar problems are reported some time ago in conjunction with mips, threads or shlibs. I doubt that this is related to the MIPS issue. Unfortunately it's not easy to establish what the cause is. I noticed that you use gcc 3.4.3. It might be that the compiler is optimizing in ways that GDB looses track. If you can't produce a smallish example that shows the problem, can you provide me with the disassembled code from the function where things go wrong, and the functions that are called by that function around that point?
