Sigh.  Another chapter from the NT never-ending bug book...

I went to the nearest NT box, and I indeed see all the problems you have 
mentioned.  Seems like NT likes DJGPP even less than I thought.  Time to 
add a new section to the FAQ...

It is strange, though, that others users of NT have never reported such 
grave problems with the debugger.  It is possible that in real-life 
programs (as opposed to trivial one-liners) some of the problems go 
away.  Could you try to debug a larger program?

Would other people who use NT please share their experience about 
debugging poroblems?  Thanks.
