Compiling two linux apps with the same source file, and debugging on the same TCF agent, can result in a walking breakpoint.

Example:
1.) Compile a simple linux application.
2.) Copy the application build dir, to another directory.
3.) Add a couple of comment lines to the source and rebuild.
4.) Launch the TCF agent.
5.) Debug the first application.  Plant a BP at a source line directly after where comment lines where added.
6.) Debug the second application.  Observe that the BP is planted at the line appropriate for that process.
7.) Select the original context.

At this point, the original BP was moved to reflect the planting of the second process.

Looking at the agent, this appears to be a side affect of the property bag used for the source line bp.  These are not context specific BPs, and the property bag does not differ much between the two processes.  This results in BP set when debugging the first process, being reused and updated when debugging the second procress.

This may not be a common workflow, but it can occur in a couple of valid workflow scenerios.
