Subject: Debug before main?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Is there any way to use GDB to debug a program before main is called?  
I'm writing a malloc() replacement, and my code is crashing before it 
gets to main.  However, if I put a breakpoint a my malloc(), it just gets 
ignored.  I can debug just fine with edebug32, but I find GDB to be far 
superior.  Is this another of those cases where GDB just won't work?  If 
it is, it might should be added to the FAQ.
