What compiler are you using to build the program that you are compiling?
If you are using gcc 3.X, this is a known, unfixed problem.
See the PROBLEMS file in a recent release of gdb (like gdb 6.2)
for an explanation. Briefly: gcc 3.X emits two or three object code
functions for each destructor; gdb doesn't understand this;
so gdb puts a breakpoint in just one copy.

You could try this patch:
ftp://ftp.shout.net/pub/users/mec/gdb/ctor-dtor-base.patch
You'll need to start with a more recent version of gdb than gdb 5.1.1,
like gdb 6.1.1 or gdb 6.2. Read the doco (which is useful anyways),
apply the patch, build gdb, and see if you like it.

We are trying to set a breakpoint in a destructor. this does not seem to
work. Running GDB 5.1.1 on a SuSE 2.4 Kernel. The breakpoint gets set, but
it never fires.
