This is an interesting clarification.  Perhaps the problem is simply that
the dash for a debugger break point isn't available in the other cases, but
the code has in fact been generated.

Looking at the disassembly is the way to find out for sure if you code is
there.  I'd wager that it'd be much more likely that the debugger's
breakpoint dash might get lost, than that the compiler just skip code.

On the other hand, it could be a bug.  Having bugs in compilers is a major
pain, but let's none of us forget that we also have each written (and
shipped) our fair share of bugs...
