gdb 4.1[345] alpha-dec-osf3.0 fails to stop at breakpoints

Has anyone gotten gdb-4.1[345] working on DEC OSF1/V3.0? It builds without
error using either dec cc or gcc (up to v2.7.0), but when I actually use it,
it won't stop at any breakpoints. It seems to list the correct address for
the breakpoint, but upon running the debugged program, it continues till
exit, and then prints out the message:
 
        Program exited normally.
        You can't do that without a process to debug
 
Any ideas what's happening here? Am I missing some critical patches or
special configuration setup? It detects what appears to be the appropriate
version "alpha-dec-osf3.0" at configuration time. I have a DEC 3000 Model
800 AXP.
 
Thanks for any help!
Wade
