What's strange about it is that delegates inside the function I'm 
calling are hit but code in the root of the function are not.

void CallSomeFunctionInMyFile()
{
    addDelegate(()
    {
       foo();
    });

    foo();
}

The first foo will break on a BP assinged to it but the second 
one won't.
