Comment 1 for bug 1401565

Could you add code of the working linux PC scenario, please? Sorry, but I do not believe it is working. GDB will not change the program flow by stepping. "step over" means it will halt when the instruction at the line you step over has finished and the control flow reaches the next line. Since a line with an infinite loop is never done, step over will simply not work.

As a workaround you could use a boolean guard, which you modify while debugging to break out of the loop.
