Vax 11/780 sdb Release 5.0

I have been working on a multi-lingual microassembler for a couple
of months now.  I compile my lexical analyzer, three yacc parsers,
and main C program with generic functions in it all with the -g
option so I can use that invaluable tool -- sdb(1).

Today, I came in and a user told me of a problem with gus (my assembler),
so I took it into sdb as I do several times every day.  It came back
with the usual 'No core image' and the '*' prompt, and will do anything
I ask it to except set breakpoints.  Have you ever got the
'Cannot set breakpoint' message?  Well, I suddenly get it everywhere;
I cannot set *ANY* breakpoints.  I have tried recompiling, but to no
avail.  Is my program just too big (the executable, unstripped of course,
is about 312Kb).  Any help would be appreciated....
