Yes I saw that NOPARACHUTE thingie recently but I’m currently using that and it doesn’t work either way.
The error I get when stepping with gdb is this:
Program received signal SIG32, Real-time event 32.
0x403f7479 in sigsuspend () from /lib/i686/libc.so.6
SIG32 seems to be related to pthreads, but my program doesn’t use any threads.
However I did find some stuff about that here:

I tried setting “handle SIG32 nostop” before running and now it works like a charm! Well atleast it doesn’t crash there anymore

The thing is this, I’m devloping an OpenGL application under Linux
(with SDL of course), which works just fine. The poroblem is that when I
try to debug my application (with gdb) it always crashes on the
SDL_Init() call. Has anyone else had this happening?Maybe you should enable SDL_INIT_NOPARACHUTE (i am not sure if this names
fits but it is something like this) if it doesn’t help it at least help’s
you to have core and i am sure that you will not expierience same problem
using gdb on core. (if you have some odd distribution take care of
ulimit -c if it is too small you will not have core)
