I think Gdb and Emacs have a different expectation for the pathname syntax. 
There are some suggestions in gdb-ui.el:

;; If you are using Cygwin GDB and find that the source is not being displayed
;; in Emacs when you step through it, possible solutions are to:

;;   1) Use Cygwin X Windows and Cygwin Emacs.
;;        (Since 22.1 Emacs builds under Cygwin.)
;;   2) Use MinGW GDB instead.
;;   3) Use cygwin-mount.el
