Try the latest cvs DirectFB if you haven't already.

On my system (cvs DirectFB + multi-app core) you test app works just fine.

You can't use gdb without multi-app core since you can't see the debugger 
when your app gets halted. Maybe that's the freeze you're seeing. In 
which case the magic sysrq key should get you out.

Compile DirectFB with --enable-trace and you get a stack trace when your 
program receives a signal.

You could also try the SDL system. That should allow you to use gdb even 
with the single-app core.
