(This bug report unfortunately got no response at the time.)

I tried this in Emacs 28, and things seem to work as normal:

M-x gud-gdb RET RET

Reading symbols from bug...
(gdb) b main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x1139: file foo.c, line 4.
(gdb)

Are you still seeing this issue on more recent versions of Emacs?
