gdb continues when I want "next"

- Subject: gdb continues when I want "next"
Hello,
Using gdb 6.3 (where the version doesn't matter that much. I had the same
trouble with 6.6) on an up to date debian etch I have (at least) two
errors:
1) I set (exactly) one breakpoint. gdb stops on it. But more often then
not when you issue a "next" or "finish" command, the program just
continues without halt and breaks at this breakpoint agin. The program
that is debugged is multi threaded.
I _suspect_ that this only happens the first time that I debug the
program: When the program ends and I type "run" for the second (and more)
time, I can degub quite fine.
2) Conditions as above, but: Sometimes, I get this when reaching the
breakpoint for the first time:
Breakpoint 1, CPTLinearGraphic::CalculateLinLines (this=0x9251de0)
at
/home/gru/projects/vxp/branches/branch-0-2-10-X/Dafit_Code/drawdevices/CPTLinearGraphic.cpp:1640

I really need some help, since my colleagues are starting to kill me
because thay can't debug...
One more note: The debugged program is compiled with gcc 2.95.4. Ancient,
but we have no other choice at the moment... :(
P.S. Sorry to Daniel, I should have postet this to the list the first time
...
Best regards
