1) use -g on all source module compiles as well as link ?
2) post a stack trace, or e-mail to me offline. 
3) was the executable stripped ? (strip filename or ld -s )? Stripping
   well, strips debug info.

You might also be in a system routine, not one of yours, & thus not get
a line number for that routine. Line #'s of callers should be in stack trace.
