ddd uses bad option to start gdb

I have a new instance of openSUSE 11.1 with a problem with ddd. I'm using GNU
DDD 3.3.11 (x86_64-suse-linux-gnu) with GNU gdb (GDB; openSUSE 11.1)
6.8.50.20081120-cvs.

The command 'ddd prog' fails with an error box titled "DDD: No Debugger"
containing the message "GDB could not be started". The log file in ~/.ddd/log
contains the line "gdb: unrecognized option \'-P\'\n". If I do not specify the
program in the startup command, then all is OK.

Where does ddd store the startup options for gdb?

Thanks,

Larry
