I wonder if this is related to a bug I've reported where, if you use
the Run Project command (with Project Properties -> Run Command set to
the desired source file), breakpoints work but cause strange errors
such as the following:

% Breakpoint at: V7TEST 13
% CD: String expression required in this context:
_IDLDT$_RUN$_CURRENT_DIR.
% Execution halted at: V7TEST 13
% $MAIN$
% Identifiers can only be added or deleted at the main level:
_IDLDT$_RUN$_CURRENT_DIR.
% Execution halted at: V7TEST 13
% $MAIN$

They work fine (without error) as long as I don't use Run Project,
instead ensuring that my main source file is in the top editor tab and
using Run <filename>. A minor annoyance since I usually don't even
need the top-level source file open while I'm working on the code.

The bug is CR 50591 in ITT's system, and a fix is expected for version
7.1 in early 2009. Maybe it's not related, but I thought it useful to
put this information out there for others looking up breakpoint
problems.
