i have an if statement that looks like:

You have to run gdb as root to debug processess running as root.
(If you think about it, it makes sense.)
I don't know whether there's any way for Xcode to run gdb as root
but you can do it yourself (using sudo) if you don't depend on
Xcode's GUI.
I think you have to log in as root to do this; as I recall a change
was made to Mac OS X a while back to prohibit launching GUI apps as
root while logged in as not-root (or, perhaps, just prohibiting
launching GUI apps under a different ID than that of the logged-in
user; I forget).

Justin
