 Curiously, clearing the breakpoint and continuing the program under 'gdb'
 allowed it to complete successfully.
 
 Remaining in 'gdb' and running the program with each subsequent input
 shown in the Makefile completes normally.
 
 Resuming 'make build' phase normally causes 'uic' to hang in "fdclose"
 on the next target it builds.
