Debugger Balking

I'm trying to step through my code line by line in the debugger, occasionally stepping into a function. I've come to a place in my code where the debugger refuses to continue. When I try to step into or over a particular function the status bar says "GDB Stopped after step", my app starts consuming 100% of the CPU (on a DP system), and the debugger just refuses to go any further. The various step and continue buttons can be clicked but don't appear to do anything. The console shows a (gdb) prompt but when I enter a command (e.g., print) nothing happens. The only thing I can do is terminate my app. If I try again and set a breakpoint a few lines further down I break at that point but then get the same behavior.

I've tried tossing the build folder and rebuilding my project and rebooting my system. I'm running Xcode 2.2.1 on PPC. Can anybody suggest something else to try?

FWIW, before this started I had a couple odd errors. When building my project Xcode reported two erroneous compiler errors in a C++ class declaration that hasn't changed in ages (something like "empty declaration"). I quit Xcode, relaunched it and built the project again. This time it rebuilt about 40 files and seemed to work correctly until this debugger issue showed up a few minutes later. That's when I threw away the entire build folder and rebuilt the project.

Thanks,
Nick
