Stopping an in-progress build can be hazardous to your debugging

I don't want to file a bug because it's not really a reproducible
problem, but I've noticed that it's entirely possible to get the project
into a state where breakpoints no longer stop responding in some, but
not all, files. The debugger simply will not stop, but a printf on that
line verifies that the line is executed.

I'm almost positive that the culprit is stopping a build in the middle
of compiling a file then starting it up again (with or without making
changes to it). I did this several times while iterating on some code in
a debug session and then noticed that all of a sudden gdb would no
longer stop at my breakpoints for that file.

Nothing I did could repair my ability to stop at breakpoints in this
file short of a full clean of the project. Has anyone else noticed this?
I'm not sure how to file a bug since I can't repro most of the time. I'm
sure it'll just get closed outright.

Thoughts?
