Sorry, I had the very same problem in February, you told me to
fix my gdb installation, which was plain Debian bullseye,
I compiled from debian source, then it worked.  Since then
I reinstalled Debian bullseye, hence the same problem, I did
the same and build Emacs without optimazion and with max
debug symbols from a even newer moment of the repo:
