Breakpoints ignored for dynamically linked app

I'm running gdb/gdbserver 5.3 on 2.4.19-rmk6-pxa1 on a DBPXA250 
(XScale/Lubbock) board, built with gcc 3.2.1, glibc-2.3.1. 

Debugging a statically linked "hello world" app works fine with gdb or 
gdbserver.  If I try to debug the same app with dynamic linking, breakpoints 
are ignored, and the program being debugged runs to completion.  This 
happens both for gdb and gdbserver running on the ARM target board. 

Any ideas on the reason for this behavior, or what needs to be fixed? 

Thanks!,
