Hmm. Can't help here. It looks like it to me, though I might suggest
re-ordering your command line args -- gcc -h -o foo foo.c though I really
doubt that will have any effect.

When I tried ddd it took me several tries to get it to open the source code
along with everything else. I can't remember if I specified the source on
the command line, or if I had to edit the preferences to tell it where it
could find the sources, or if I was screwing up the "file|open source"
command. (Cool command name... :)
