Apple OS/X (Darwin) 10.4.8
>Description:
I'm iteratively debugging a program in the debugger. If I make a change, recompile, and then load the program again breakpoints cause GDB to drop a Segmentation Fault.


>How-To-Repeat:
Here's a session:

% gdb ./prog
(gdb) list some_function
(gdb) break 55
Breakpoint 1 at 0x2a2e: file prog.c, line 55.

--> Recompile the program here

(gdb) file np
`/path/to/prog' has changed; re-reading symbols.
Breakpoint 1 at 0x2a2e: file prog.c, line 56.
Load new symbol table from "/path/to/program"? (y or n) y
Reading symbols from /path/to/program...done.
(gdb) run --the-args
Starting program: /path/to/program --the-args
Segmentation fault
