Did you try the path in "run param" (to the exe  inside the app bundle)?

Unless you upgrade (wich I understand you currently can not) you need AT 
LEAST all of the following 3
1) path in "run param" to the exe  inside the app bundle
2) ExeEncoding
3) |EncodeCurrentDirPath |

***** CORRECTION ***

In my previous post:

Which is the setting it already has.
It must be changed to |gdfeNone   for BOTH

-----------------------
If nothing helps, please provide a log:
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/GDB_Debugger_Tips#Log_info_for_debug_session

That will allow me to see where exactly the debugger fails.

If the log is bigger, you may send it directly to my mail, bypassing the 
list.

About the none debugger issues (focus...), I have no idea. Someone else 
will need to comment on them.
