In my experience, it stops on some breakpoints and not on others (for instance
it doesn't break on panic). You may see if attaching to an already running
UML rather than starting it under GDB makes a difference ("gdb kernelBinary"
and "attach <pid>", where PID is the lowest one between the running procs).
It's a problem I have since some time which I never solved - I guess that I'll
have to make a bugreport to GDB.

On this you're likely lying, as it's not possible to enable normally and there
are various things which shouldn't compile if you disable -Ox. This is not
the problem, however.

Probably yes - I remember some mention of such a crash incompatibility in
GCC's site release notes. But maybe there's some option to make GCC use the
old format.
