I don't understand why this doesn't work

[Ray Hurst]

I'm running under Windows XP and Cygwin.

I ran GDB on a simple C program and captured the output (below).
I have a few questions:

Why can I run the program several times with no errors but as soon as I 
set a breakpoint at main it gets a SIGSEGV fault?

Why does the backtrace show only addresses?
