You should need to, no.  If gdb properly understands what's going on, it
will remove and reinsert breakpoints when you attach and detach.  I am not
entirely sure what it does when you attach before the memory is there.  I
think that gdb doesn't actualy insert the breakpoints until the first cont,
but I am not sure.

Yes, indeedy!  Damn finicky it is.  It would be nice if someone debugging
gdb and finally fixed this.

Good thing you're so cute, or someone might have to whack you upside the head.
