I think the easiest way to do that is to include in your program a
function that returns a value or values at that address, then make GDB
call it.  For example, suppose you write a function like this:

   unsigned gs_peek (unsigned offset);

Then you can make GDB print the value at %gs:0x1234 like so:

   (gdb) print gs_peek(0x1234)
