gdb can't gain full control of app

I'm doing some cell phone programming.
Coding is done on a windows machine; the
API package ('BREW') includes a windows
nt/2000 emulator (I am running 2000).
I make a dll which gets loaded into the
emulator. MSVC++ is the officially
supported environment, but I can compile
with gcc -mno-cygwin as well.
To debug, I do
(gdb) symbol-file ./mymodule.dll
(gdb) exec-file ./emulator.exe
It sort of works. Control-c doesn't break
the program, but it will stop at the first
breakpoint. However if you continue after
hitting the breakpoint, gdb loses its
attachment; it won't stop at any more breakpoints
thereafter and control-c still won't break.
(Debugging works fine with MSVC++.)
Since BREW is closed and proprietary, the best
I can do is to solicit suggestions; maybe
a similar problem occurs elsewhere.
Thanks in advance.
