Well to get gcc to compile with debug you use the "-g" option... add this to 
your CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS in /etc/make.conf to generate the debug info.

This is where I got it from, so you can look for more info - 'man gcc':
       -g  Produce debugging information in the operating system's native for-
           mat (stabs, COFF, XCOFF, or DWARF).  GDB can work with this debug-
           ging information.
