There are two different source files named analyze.c; I wonder which one
the debugger thinks you are talking about ...

In gdb, the solution for this is to always start by setting a breakpoint
by function name. Once you're stopped in a particular source file, gdb
will assume that that file is meant by "b linenumber" references. Perhaps
the same kind of trick will work with VS.
