Did some testing with different GDB versions and gcc-3.4.4 and 
gcc-3.4.6. Compiled mktime test example from other mail

gcc -gcoff mktime_test.c -o mktime_test.exe

Seems that debugging works OK with official DJGPP gdb-7.7.1 and gdb-7.6
for COFF debugging info at least for small test executable.
gdb-7.9.1 however crashes with SIGABRT. Maybe we do not need gdb-7.0 at 
all and some more recent version could be OK.

Of course all my tests were on small test example only.
