Just a (possibly dumb) suggestion that might help - have you
	tried just compiling the main c files with -g & then linking to
	see if gdb will show where it disappears off into neverland,
	then selectively recompile the offending files until you get the
	actual core point?

	PS: Good luck with the driver :)
