Exclamation HELP! What does "/elf/start.S: No such file" mean??


Hi all,
I've been happily compiling running and testing my code for weeks now. I compiled it specific to my architecture and found a bug. So I 'make clean' and
recompiled in debug mode. I can run the executable fine (I still see the bug) but
when I use gdb and simply type 'list' I get
1 ../sysdeps/i386/elf/start.S: No such file or directory
in ../sysdeps/i386/elf/start.S

What have I done?? I rebooted with no luck. I have no clue why it can't find the file -- I assume this is the first file that tells the OS about where my executable is??

By compiling in production mode could I have broken something? Did I just break something major??

Below is my makefile. ANY help is appreciated, because google and searching here didn't turn up anything.

Thanks!

Code:
OBJECTS = remora.o timeRoutines.o RemoraServer.o CPstring.o RemoraHost.o CommonApplication.o RemoraSite.o RemoraTable.o RemoraParameters.o
CFLAGS = -Wall -pg
#CFLAGS = -Wall -O3 -mcpu=pentium3 -march=pentium3

all: remora

remora: $(OBJECTS)
	g++ $(CFLAGS) -o remora $(OBJECTS)

remora.o: remora.cc
	g++ $(CFLAGS) -c -o remora.o remora.cc

CPstring.o: CPstring.cc
	g++ $(CFLAGS) -c -o CPstring.o CPstring.cc

CommonApplication.o: CommonApplication.cc
	g++ $(CFLAGS) -c -o CommonApplication.o CommonApplication.cc

timeRoutines.o: timeRoutines.cc
	g++ $(CFLAGS) -c -o timeRoutines.o timeRoutines.cc

RemoraServer.o: RemoraServer.cc
	g++ $(CFLAGS) -c -o RemoraServer.o RemoraServer.cc

RemoraHost.o: RemoraHost.cc
	g++ $(CFLAGS) -c -o RemoraHost.o RemoraHost.cc

RemoraSite.o: RemoraSite.cc
	g++ $(CFLAGS) -c -o RemoraSite.o RemoraSite.cc

RemoraTable.o: RemoraTable.cc
	g++ $(CFLAGS) -c -o RemoraTable.o RemoraTable.cc

RemoraParameters.o: RemoraParameters.cc
	g++ $(CFLAGS) -c -o RemoraParameters.o RemoraParameters.cc

#RemoraRules.o: RemoraRules.cc
#	g++ $(CFLAGS) -c -o RemoraRules.o RemoraRules.cc

clean:
	rm -rf $(OBJECTS)
	rm -rf remora
	rm -rf .*debug
	rm -rf *.db

CFLAGS= -Wall -p -g

g++/gcc likes a - for every argument
