This is OK.

This will strip the (debugging) symbols. You should be using
lily/out/lilypond-bin, unstripped, are you doing that?

Which simply means that LilyPond cannot find /usr/share/lilypond/xyz/afm

Running in gdb is exactly the same as running without gdb. Just make
sure lily ca find the necessary files.
For developing, you can run lilypond without installing
./configure --prefix=$(pwd) --enable-debugging
make
gdb ./lily/out/lilypond-bin
