there is no improvement; GDB continues to be unable to insert break-points.
On reflection, could it be due to a mismatch between the binutils version
against which GDB was linked — IIRC, I built mingw32-gdb-9.2 using
mingw32-gcc-9.2.0, with mingw32-binutils-2.32 — and the version used to build
the target program — now mingw32-gcc-10.2.0, with mingw32-binutils-2.38? Some
further investigation is required, I think.
If you can make that problematic executable available for download somewhere, I
could try debugging it with the latest GDB 12.1 on MS-Windows, and see how far
I get.
Sure. I've attached a tarball, containing the (trivial) source, together with
two variants of the executable, both compiled with:
$ mingw32-gcc -g -O0 foo.c -o foo-gcc-10.2.0-binutils-2.3x.exe
(with the respectively named binutils version installed in the
mingw32-gcc-10.2.0 path). The binutils-2.32 variant (which uses the same
binutils version as my GDB build) can be successfully debugged; the
binutils-2.38 variant cannot.
Also, maybe try using -gdwarf-2 when compiling the program, perhaps the problem
is due to the debug info, not the executable code.
-gdwarf-2 or -g makes no difference: binutils-2.32 is okay; binutils-2.38 is
not.

Ticket details:
The latest version of GCC, 9.2.0, available for MinGW development, was released
almost 2 years ago and last updated more than a year ago.
Would it be possible to provide a MinGW port of a newer GCC version, like 10 or
maybe even 11?
Thanks in advance.
