Did you turn off compiler optimisations? I had the same problem (gdb hopping around in a non-intuitive way, and the values of some useful variables were optimised out) until I turned them off. If that's the problem, you can do it by configuring with --enable-debug, or if you're just building a single module you can do "build -- debug=t dbglevel=2" I think "dbglevel=1" also turns them off, and will give less noise, but I haven't checked.
