This is a limitation of object code format used by DJGPP.  The only 
work-around is to use your editor to actually put the included source 
into the file which includes it, for the period that you are debugging 
it.  (It's all explained in the DJGPP FAQ, btw, see section 12.8.  It 
talks about GDB, but RHIDE uses GDB code for its built-in debugger, so 
the same limitation exists in RHIDE.)
