The -g option during compiling _and_ linking should be enough. For g++,
you could use -gstabs+.
What exactly did you do in xxgdb? If you get a segmentation fault while
running the program, try the `where' command to see where the program
was when it crashed. The debugger will not stop a program from
crashing, it will (among other things) let you inspect the status of the
program when it crashes.
