The DOS X10 software that came way back when with my X10 interface
box (connects to a serial port and a wall socket) stopped working
when my computers got faster. It turns out that the box doesn't
do flow control, yet will drop back to back characters at certain
times, so the software uses delays. That's OK, except that they
use delay loops with hardwired counts, i.e.; that don't get adjusted
for processor speed.
So if you mean that it works when you're stepping through things
with gdb, but not at full speed (even under gdb), you may not have
delays where required.
