Um.  I did have this working.  Is the version of link.h which you have
installed the latest (1.18).  This version has the necessary definitions
for elf shared library debugging (selected by either -D__ELF__ or
-DFREEBSD_ELF).  Make sure you have also installed the latest rtld-elf.

I haven't tried to build this for a few weeks so it might need some
tweaking.  The principle is simple - I made the debugger interface for our
rtld-elf the same as a normal SVR4 system so the changes to GDB were
minimal.
