Well,what gdb version are you using ? I hope not based on cygwin ?
Anyway using --debug-log or just --debug command line switch or rebuild 
with win32 console enabled is better choice.However gdb is very good in 
resolving strange but narrow described problems IMHO.
Running IDE under gdb may be unstable because gdb does not know all 
Object pascal structures.
