I can't duplicate your problem:

  wiggum % cat foo.c
  #include <stdio.h>
  extern int bar(void);
  
  int main()
  {
    bar();
    return 0;
  }
  wiggum % cat bar.c
  #include <stdio.h>
  
  int bar()
  {
    return 0;
  }
  wiggum % gcc -c foo.c -g -Wall
  wiggum % gcc -c bar.c -g -Wall
  wiggum % gcc foo.o bar.o -o program -g -Wall
  wiggum % gdb program 
  GNU gdb 4.18
  Copyright 1998 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
    [ blah, blah ]
  This GDB was configured as "i386-unknown-freebsd"...
  (gdb) break main
  Breakpoint 1 at 0x80484ee: file foo.c, line 6.

Try to be more specific about what you do to produce this error.
