The following is an assumption, since the call to the constructor is
done in assembly the debugger has noway to tell that there's an actual
function call. You can make your debugger stops in the constructor by
adding a break-point to the first instruction in the constructor body.

I'm not sure what do you mean by changing the dir settings. What do you
also mean by "other" line number. Did you compile your program using
"-g". Also, try to show some output so that others can recognize what is
the problem.
