Very strange indeed. If it is the session then I have no Idea. Except: 
Use a logfile for the IDE, and check, if fpc is called with identical 
arguments.

Also check the diff between debug logfiles:

About the error (8 digit address, so you are on win32?):
Cannot insert breakpoint,can happen with positive or negative numbers.
- positive: A user set breakpoint
- negative gdb internal breakpoint (used for stepping)

GDB predicted all possible points where the step can end. And one is in 
memory that gdb can not set a breakpoint.

The address suggests (if normal mem layout applies), that this is inside 
a dll (system dll). So that would explain why it cant set a breakpoint 
there.
That can happen, if the dll is executed in a 2nd thread. E.g. the file 
open/close dialogs, start several system threads.

But how that goes with the session ...? No idea.
