I have a program which includes a library; the library has an object
file named `port.o' in it.  My program also has a file named `port.o'.
When I look at `port.c' (the one from my program, not the library) in
Emacs, and ask gdb to set a breakpoint in it (with C-x SPC,
gdb-break), gdb tells me this:

	(gdb) Reading in symbols for /home/CapFast/src/libs/src/pnl/src/port.c...done.
	No line 41 in file "/home/CapFast/src/libs/src/pnl/src/port.c".

How can I tell it to set a break in the file I'm interested in -- the
local port.c, not the one in the library???
