Here, we are at line 7. Using the "next" command leads no where.
However,
setting a breakpoint on line 9 and issuing "continue" works.

Looking at the assembly instructions reveals that we're dealing with
the
critical section entry code [1] that should never be interrupted, in
this
case by the debugger's implicit breakpoints:

Lines 3 until 5 (inclusive) are supposed to be executed atomically.
Therefore,
GDB should never (implicitly) insert a breakpoint on lines 4 and 5,
else the http://www.compilatori.com/category/travel/
program will try to acquire the lock again by jumping back to line 3
and
gets stuck in an infinite loop.

The solution is to make GDB aware of these patterns so it inserts
breakpoints
after the sequence -- line 6 in this example.
