Details

Debug flags for gcc in nsprpub/configure are set to "-gstabs" which does not work with Solaris dbx v6.2. When compiled with -gstabs dbx sees no source line debug info; single step into an NSPR function acts like run. Wan-Teh, in rev 1.55 you noted that "-g" did not work with gcc, now it looks like the problem has been fixed (on Solaris 10 anyway). I tried it and dbx v6.2 is happy with the -g output. Maybe we should change it back.
