From time to time stepping from Java into native does not work. (As I remember, it seemed that Java just runs further until it hits one of Java breakpoints; although now I'm not quite sure). This happens when the debugging view is closed. This happens more frequently if I do debugging several times and less frequently when I just open IDE and do a debugging. My use case is very simple: a simple 1-class Java application, a simple .so that implements a native method; Java breakpoint at this method call, when it's hit, press F7 - and hope to get into native. I'm attaching a gdb log.

Although unstable, this bug seems very important to me. At least that's exactly the bug that prevented me from demoing mixed dev to an important customer.
It seems that with gdb 7.10 everything works OK. But let me double check prior than closing the issue.
