When compiling code for use with a debugger, especially C++ code with 
complex code interleaving, always pass -O0 to the compiler. Despite what 
it may appear, not passing anything is not the same as telling the 
compiler to turn off all optimizations.

-O0 should allow you to sanely debug any application gcc can compile, no 
matter what (well, not including C preprocessor tricks. Those are still 
horrible).

It may be that that was all that insight did "correctly".
