I had just download the gpc-20010409 package, and followed the instructions to build it and installed. All things looks like well, but I can't debug any program, even like this:
program hello;
begin writeln('Hello world'); end.
I compiled it with `gpc -g -o hello hello.pas', and then issue `gdb hello'. The following is the output from gdb.

The problem is that startup of Pascal programs is a little different from C (because there are explicit and automatic initializers etc.). Try the following instructions (you can put them in your .gdbinit). Then `l' should work. (Note, they may change in some future GPC version ...)
break init_pascal_main_program run break pascal_main_program break '_p_runfinalizers' cont
