I'm not really sure about this. IIRC the internal design of gdb is modeled after the STABS debug format. This means that even for DWARF, it internally is translated to STABS, meaning that not all contstucts possible in DWARF are supported. Given this I have doubts that all features of FPC can be implemented in gdb. (again, IIRC)
Just like FPC development, GDB development does not stand still. The above no longer is true (full, or nearly full, DWARF3 support is in the GDB Archer branch, and I have already fixed bugs in FPC's DWARF3 information so that e.g. dynamic arrays work perfectly in that version of GDB).
