the bug's in the kernel, not gdb. This has been fixed since SNAP-021095.

stock gdb doesn't understand our magic numbers. You could try taking the
{n,t,x}m.h files from /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/gdb/gdb and using them with
gdb-4.14. There are also files in bfd that need to be changed, can't
remember exactly which ones.
Looks like it's time to port gdb-4.14.
