The gcc@gcc.gnu.org mailing list is for discussion of gcc development.
This question would be better directed to gcc-h...@gcc.gnu.org or to
g...@sourceware.org.  Please take any followups there.  Thanks.

Yes, while there are of course occasional bugs and mismatches, in
general all versions of gcc and gdb are compatible.  That said, gdb 5.3
is old; it was released over five years ago.  It will ignore some of the
newer types of debugging information emitted by gcc.  The current gdb
release is 6.8, and is considerably enhanced over 5.3.  You should
consider upgrading if possible.
