I don't know about your specific problems, but as far as debugging the
cygwin DLL goes, that is certainly possible: I've done it many, many
times. There are really no special techniques for doing this. Just make
sure that the DLL and newlib were compiled with debug info and that you
use the "dir" command to add the source paths for these modules to gdb's
list. You should be able to step into newlib, which then gets you into
the DLL.
